Annotation

This paper argues that the Turkish-German code-mixing and code-switching by adolescents of Turkish background in Germany oscillates between local sequential functions and a more global 'we-group'-function. The adolescents' use of hybrid language is an attempt to constitute an autonomous form of (counter-) discourse in its own right.
