The Emergence of Hybrid Grammars

- Language Contact and Change

About The Emergence of Hybrid Grammars

Based on a detailed study of creole languages, this book contributes to the debate on language acquisition and change by showing that language acquisition requires contact between different linguistic sub-systems that feed into the hybrid grammars that learners develop. Competition between these grammars may eventually result in language change.
