Patterns of linguistic vitality: Intergenerational transmission in indigenous and immigrant bilingual communities
Original language description
The language use in communication with different generations of speakers related to an informant is a frequent query in surveys about the vitality of heritage languages. The study shows how self-reporting is influenced by attitudes in favor of the dominant language. The patterns in reported use are identified comparing immigrant and indigenous languages, especially as for the language use with siblings. Then the patterns of language use in communication with different family members are analyzed according to the generation of informants. The patterns of reported use with children and with parents show radical disagreement, which points to the significant influence of language attitudes especially when reporting on language use with children. The conclusion is that the reported use does not accurately reflect the actual process of losing minority languages, which is slower than reported.
