This paper examines the building and altering of “expert” and “novice” roles between and within two languages (Japanese and English). It discloses the dynamics of language socialization in a bilingual/immigrant context in which the relative roles of expert and novice appear, change, and are parleyed in interaction. The findings are debated in relation to language expertise, power and hierarchy, agency and bidirectional language socialization.
