Hybrid Language Practices Among Ffl Master's Degree Students Of Tiaret University.

Abstract

This investigation describes linguistic hybridization that is, mostly, neglected by Algerian linguists. It presents a case where spoken Algerian Arabic and French are involved. It discusses hybrid usage among FFL students of Tiaret university and studies how both codes are merged to form a hybrid variety that shares different linguistic elements with the composing codes. More specifically, the emphasis is on the way FFLs use French words in their communication. Moreover, the inquiry is based on detailed descriptive analysis of purposed recorded speeches and observations of 20 participants that were carefully chosen. The qualitative analysis shows that the respondents are using one variety; however, with two different linguistic systems.
