It places the study of language attrition within the historical and sociocultural framework of Weimar and Nazi Germany, applying issues of identity and identification to first language loss and maintenance. Morphosyntactic features of German are looked at in free spoken discourse, in an analysis of both 'interferences' or 'errors' and their overall (correct) use. The picture of L1 proficiency which emerges from these investigations is then related to a taxonomy of intensity of persecution, clearly demonstrating this to be the decisive factor in language attrition, while showing other factors such as age at emigration and intermediate use to be inconclusive.In order to give a full and tangible picture of language attrition and maintenance, the book comes with an Audio-CD, featuring excerpts from more than twenty of the interviews analyzed. 410 0$aStudies in bilingualism ;$vv. 24. 606 $aLanguage attrition 606 $aLanguage maintenance 606 $aLanguages in contact 606 $aJews, German$zEnglish-speaking countries$xLanguages 615 0$aLanguage attrition. 615 0$aLanguage maintenance. 615 0$aLanguages in contact. 615 0$aJews, German$xLanguages. 676 $a306.44 700 $aSchmid$b Monika S$0903439 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910822411703321 996 $aFirst language attrition, use and maintenance$93980542 997 $aUNINA
