Another quote on Code switching. ( The extracts are taken from a published article by Jacqueline Araya Ríos and Jorge Luis Espinoza Camposon the net.) Any good?
"Milroy and Myusken (1995) classify the habit of code-switching into three
different types. The first one is known as inter-utterance or (intersentencial)
code-switching, and it refers to language switching which occurs between utterances
said by the same speaker. Then, there is inter or intra-sentential codeswitching,
which takes place within a sentence. In this case, embedded words,
phrases and even sentences may be found across or within sentences (p. 33).
The third type is suprasentencial or unitary code-switching, which occurs when
speakers switch either a segment or a single item of the utterance. Poplack
(1980) identifies one more type of code-switching—ungrammatical code-switching—
which refers to the mixing of the structure of both languages to create new
words (as cited in Becker, 1997, p. 11)."

I really wonder  why colleagues are quiet on this important issue. Come on "busy bees", let's spare our "honey buzz" here. Thanks.

shamshoque:
Colleagues, I just request your short response to only one question now:

Does code switching help learners of EFL/ESL  learn better? If yes, how?

Thank you.
