Title: Uriel Weinreich, Languages in Contact
Issue Date: 14-May-2009
Description: Uriel Weinreich, Languages in Contact (1953; repr. The Hague: Mouton, 1966). In this study, a linguist assesses the impact of English on Yiddish and the selective place of Yiddish, as well as other immigrant languages, in American English in the early post-World War II years. Weinreich also considers how these languages acquire special symbolic and emotional value in immigrant contexts.
