Abstract

The monograph by E.E. Sarkisov and S.G. Nikolaev investigates the phenomenon of cross-language interference found in languages in contact, which actively influences the structure and content of the new, hybrid entity traditionally called lingua franca. The object of research in this monograph is the discourse field within which English-Spanish bilinguals communicate both with each other and with other bilinguals and monolinguals using Spanglish through the spoken and written word.
