Poplack 1980), much of recent research, which was conducted in countries other than Vietnam, has been concerned with the use of code-switching in the foreign and second language classroom (Moore 2002; Celik 2003; Dailey-O‟Cain & Liebscher 2005), in Internet chatting (Cardenas-Claros & Isharyanti 2009), in advertising (Chen 2006, Leung 2010) and in conversations between fellow expatriates (Ho-Dac 2003; Jalil 2009) However, so far very little research has dealt with code-switching in Vietnam as well as of Vietnamese –English bilinguals, a linguistic phenomenon which has become common in their daily speech Obviously, research on code-switching is still in its infancy in Vietnam and therefore leaves many gaps for those who are interested in this topic to investigate This study aims at filling this gap It illustrates the patterns and finds out the reasons for code-switching among Vietnamese EFL teachers at English Division 1, Faculty of English Language Teacher Education (FELTE), Hanoi University of Languages and International Studies (ULIS), Vietnam National University (VNU) In a word, keen interest in bilinguals‟ process of utterances in general and codeswitching used by her colleagues in particular, and the need to examine unanswered questions left in the field have been key motivations for the researcher to conduct this study 1.2 Aims and research questions of the study The first objective set out in this study is to review existing literature published by influential scholars on this topic Next, the study purports to investigate the types of code-switching among Vietnamese EFL teachers at English Division 1, Faculty of English Language Teacher Education, ULIS, VNU, using the theories proposed by Poplack (1980), Malik (1994), and Appel and Mu ysken (2006) as principles of TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com classification and analysis The final aim of this research is to explore the reasons for code-switching among this bilingual community In short, the study aims to answer the two following research questions: What are the types of code-switching found in conversations between Vietnamese EFL teachers at English Division 1, Faculty of English Language Teacher Education, ULIS, VNU? What are the reasons for the use of code-switching in conversations between Vietnamese EFL teachers at English Division 1, Faculty of English Language Teacher Education, ULIS, VNU? 1.3 Scope of the study This is a case study that only examines the phenomenon of code-switching among Vietnamese EFL teachers at English 1, Faculty of English Language Teacher Education, ULIS, VNU The use of code-switching by teachers in other divisions, albeit equally frequent, is not within the scope of this study This work also focuses on patterns of code-switching found in conversations among the participants, though code-switching can appear in written form Added to this, the settings of these conversations are limited to places on campus only, most of which are teacher‟s break rooms or conference halls during break times More importantly, the conversations under investigation in this study are informal ones covering daily spontaneous topics, which means discussions of issues in scheduled meetings or conferences are excluded 1.4 Methods of the study Both qualitative and quantitative methods were employed in order to find answers to the research questions First, natural conversations between participants were audio recorded and transcribed to identify instances of code-switching, which then were grouped according to Poplack‟s theory (1980) This qualitative method was used to draw findings to the first research question concerning types of VietnameseEnglish code-switching found in the recorded conversations between Vietnamese EFL teachers TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com Next, transcripts of conversations along with a short teacher‟s self-report form were delivered to participants in order to obtain their reflection on what caused them to code-switch Collected data were then calculated and grouped Employing the quantitative method at this stage, the researcher sought to find out the answers to the second research questions on reasons for the participants‟ code-switching 1.5 Significance of the study As one of the few studies conducted on the topic of code-switching, this research is expected to shed some light on the understanding of this phenomenon among EFL teachers in general and Vietnamese EFL teachers in particular, thereby encouraging more researchers to look into this topic Also, with the findings of the study, the researcher wishes to raise sociolinguistic-related issues for other studies to discuss, such as attitudes towards this phenomenon, or its development in the coming years The completion of this paper may make other possible contributions to conversation analysis as a means of ethnographic methodology, and to discourse analysis from a sociolinguistic perspective Additionally, this paper is expected to contribute to studies of speech community of this particular population in the specified setting Lastly, this research is supposed to lay the foundation for the researcher‟s future studies on bilingualism and code-switching 1.6 Overview of the rest of the study The rest of the study is comprised of four chapters which are as follows Chapter two, Theoretical Background, reviews prominent literature directly relevant to the topic being discussed Chapter three, Methodology, presents the methods used for data collection and data analysis as well as justification for these methods Chapter three is followed by the fourth chapter, Results and Discussion, in which the findings of the study are discussed to answer the research questions Finally in chapter five, recapitulation of the whole study is presented before suggestions for further studies and a conclusion are given TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com at points around which the word order of the two languages corresponds, as explained in the “equivalence constraint” proposed by Poplack (1980) It was also found out in this chapter that different syntactic word classes switch at different rates For example, switches of nouns are most common, followed by those of verbs and adjectives, which corresponds with the finding of studies by Poplack (1980) or Ho-Dac (2003) As regards reasons for code-switching, the data analysis process has also revealed that habitual expression, which is related to psychological aspect of behavior, and the quotation function of code-switching were given by informants as the main factors for their code-switching Another contributing factor is the purpose to amplify and emphasize a point As the informants were proficient in both languages, few cases of code-switching resulting from lack of facility or registers were detected An informant added a reason not included in the provided list of reasons, which was “to save time” No instances were cited as a result of the intention of attracting attention, which may be explained by the shared linguistic background between the interlocutors In the next chapter, a brief summary of what has been done in this research papers will be presented, followed by limitations of the study and suggestions for further studies 44 TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com CHAPTER CONCLUSION 5.1 Recapitulation This study has attempted to present the phenomenon of code-switching conversations among Vietnamese EFL teachers in English 1, FELTE, ULIS, VNU It has an explorative character since this is among the few studies concerning the phenomenon of code-switching between the Vietnamese language and another language Specifically, the study first aims at finding out the types of code-switching found in conversations between Vietnamese EFL teachers, using the typology suggested by Poplack (1980) Another aim of the study is to investigate the reasons of codeswitching among the sample For these purposes, twenty Vietnamese EFL teachers at English 1, FELTE, ULIS were chosen as participants After the introductory chapter, chapter two in this study focuses on reviewing literature directly relevant for the topic being investigated The concept of codeswitching is first defined, then compared and contrasted with other concepts of linguistic contact, namely code-mixing, lexical borrowing, and interference After that, three most accepted linguistic constraints on code-switching are presented, which are equivalence constraint, free morpheme constraint, and size-of-constituent constraint (Poplack 1980) A major part of this chapter is saved for discussing the typologies of code-switching proposed by Poplack (1980), Muysken (2000), and Bloom and Gumperz (1972) The discussion results in the adoption of Poplack‟s typology as the theoretical framework in this study, which classifies code-switching into extra-sentential code-switching, inter-sentential code-switching, and intrasentential code-switching Finally in this chapter, reasons for code-switching suggested by different linguists are reviewed Ten reasons proposed by Malik (1994) and one by Appel and Muysken (2006) are chosen to be the theoretical framework used in this study In terms of methodology, this study employs both qualitative and quantitative methods First, to find out the types of code-switching in the conversations between 45 TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com the participants, the researcher recorded ten conversations and transcribed them Instances of code-switching were identified in the transcript and categorized into three types suggested by Poplack (1980) Then the transcripts along with teacher‟s self-report forms were sent to the informants, asking them to identify the reasons for their code-switching in the recorded conversations By so doing, the researcher was able to find out the actual reasons for the participants‟ code-switching, based on the suggested ones by Malik (1994) and Appel and Muysken (2006) The results show that nearly all detected instances of code-switching are intrasentential code-switching and two are extra-sentential code-switching No instances of inter-sentential code-switching were found in the recorded conversations Regarding the reasons for the participants‟ code-switching, the most common one is habitual expression, followed by the need to quote book titles or from books and to convey semantic significance None of the respondents code-switched to address a different audience 5.2 Limitations of the study As stated in the introductory chapter, this is a case study that only examines the phenomenon of code-switching in conversations among Vietnamese EFL teachers at English 1, FELTE, ULIS, VNU Therefore, the initial findings of this study apply only to this population The use of code-switching by Vietnamese EFL teachers in other divisions of the Faculty, albeit equally marked and frequent, may not be compatible with these findings Also, all the conversations under investigation in this study are limited to natural and informal ones, most of which took place in the teacher‟s break rooms Thus, speech of the same participants recorded in formal settings such as meetings or conferences may not produce the same types of code-switching as found out in this study Finally, as this study looks at the types of and reasons for code-switching in conversations from grammatical and sociolinguistic points of view, only literature relevant to these questions is covered Existing literature on the topic of codeswitching is abundant and needs more examination 46 TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com 5.3 Suggestions for further studies The general approach in this case study may be useful in carrying on further research in areas which the present work has not included One such area is the description of how code-switching can be exploited in Vietnamese EFL classrooms, both by teachers and learners, to facilitate the teaching and learning process, such as in the acquisition of vocabulary This study has focused on code-switching in conversations between Vietnamese EFL teachers working at tertiary level In the researcher‟s initial observation, codeswitching occur most frequently among this population Therefore, it would be desirable for other researchers to conduct studies on other populations, such as teachers working at primary or secondary level Since the degree of their exposure to the English language and their English proficiency vary, more new findings are expected to emerge from studying these populations The final suggestion is for research on this phenomenon in formal settings or in written discourses to be conducted Different levels of formality may imply different choices of language and different frequencies of code-switching Also, the cognitive process involved in producing written discourses is likely to offer other types of and reasons for code-switching 47 TIEU LUAN MOI download :
