This paper explores a young boy’s reaction toward Korean/English bilingual situation and his code switching behavior. In particular, it describes a child’s mental reaction toward learning another language which is not his native language, the characteristics of his code switching behavior, the relationship between code switching and his overall proficiency of a second language and the major motivations of his code switching. The findings show that various factors affect a child’s code switching, which are setting, time, psychological conditions, addressees, characteristics of each language, and initiation language of a conversation partner etc. It is also shown that the overall proficiency of a bilingual speaker is highly related with his code switching pattern. The subject of this study switched languages during his speech in order to realize not only pragmatic function but also social and psycoliguistic function. The study also shows that, in any case, mixing or switching languages is a natural and normal aspect of early bilingual. Therefore, it is suggested that parents or teachers in early bilingual situation should not try to stop their children from mixing and view bilingual children’s code switching behaviors in a positive light.
Abstract
This paper explores a young boy’s reaction toward Korean/English bilingual situation and his code switching behavior. In particular, it describes a child’s mental reaction toward learning another language which is not his native language, the characteristics of his code switching behavior, the relationship between code switching and his overall proficiency of a second language and the major motivations of his code switching. The findings show that various factors affect a child’s code switching, which are setting, time, psychological conditions, addressees, characteristics of each language, and initiation language of a conversation partner etc. It is also shown that the overall proficiency of a bilingual speaker is highly related with his code switching pattern. The subject of this study switched languages during his speech in order to realize not only pragmatic function but also social and psycoliguistic function. The study also shows that, in any case, mixing or switching languages is a natural and normal aspect of early bilingual. Therefore, it is suggested that parents or teachers in early bilingual situation should not try to stop their children from mixing and view bilingual children’s code switching behaviors in a positive light.
