    Language Contact

    Uploaded by

    MA PAULINE DHAY PEREZ
    Language contact occurs when speakers of different languages interact and can result in phenomena like borrowing words or domains where specific languages are used. Native speakers own a language and set the standard, while non-native speakers may be viewed as breaking rules if they do not follow conventions. Bilingualism arises from language contact and can take forms like additive bilingualism where a new language is learned or subtractive bilingualism where proficiency in one's native tongue declines.
