The persistence of multilingualism and the linguistic creativity manifest in the playful use of different languages are striking, especially against the backdrop of language death and expanding monolingualism elsewhere in the world. The effortless mastery of several languages is disturbing, however, for those who take essentialist perspectives that see it as a problem rather than a resource, and for the dominating, conflictual, sociolinguistic model of multilingualism. This volume investigates African minority languages in the context of changing patterns of multilingualism, and also assesses the status of African languages in terms of existing influential vitality scales. An important aspect of multilingual praxis is the speakers' agency in making choices, their repertoires of registers and the multiplicity of language ideology associated with different ways of speaking. The volume represents a new and original contribution to the ethnography of speaking of multilingual practices and the cultural ideas associated with them. 410 0$aLanguage contact and bilingualism ;$v5. 606 $aMultilingualism$zAfrica 606 $aLinguistic change$zAfrica 606 $aLanguages in contact$zAfrica 606 $aLanguage and culture$zAfrica 606 $aLanguage and languages$xVariation$zAfrica 607 $aAfrica$xLanguages 610 $aAfrican Languages. 610 $aLanguage Contact. 610 $aLanguage Ideology. 610 $aLinguistic Change. 610 $aMultilingualism. 610 $aSociolinguistics. 615 0$aMultilingualism 615 0$aLinguistic change 615 0$aLanguages in contact 615 0$aLanguage and culture 615 0$aLanguage and languages$xVariation 676 $a496 700 $aLu?pke$b Friederike$01499440 701 $aStorch$b Anne$0660458 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910779737103321 996 $aRepertoires and choices in African languages$93725467 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02792nam 22006614a 450 001 9910780116203321 005 20230607212906.0 010 $a0-19-771263-0 010 $a0-19-028146-4 010 $a0-19-518570-6 010 $a1-280-44062-7 010 $a0-19-802154-2 010 $a1-60129-645-2 035 $a(CKB)111087026780774 035 $a(EBL)271334 035 $a(OCoLC)437173112 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000141096 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11130006 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000141096 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10089529 035 $a(PQKB)10582411 035 $a(SSID)ssj0001144179 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)12513242 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001144179 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)11132399 035 $a(PQKB)11302696 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL271334 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10087107 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC271334 035 $a(EXLCZ)99111087026780774 100 $a20001228d2002 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aDown & out, on the road$b[electronic resource] $ethe homeless in American history /$fKenneth L.
