Abstract
[en] This master’s thesis addresses the phenomenon of code-switching, on the one hand, in general
linguistic terms and, on the other, in a socio-cultural context. In this sense, it takes a closer look
at the causes and effects of code-switching on African American people living in the United
States, who switch between African American English and Standard English in their daily lives.
