Multilingualism in Rural Senegal

Linguistic Practices and Perceptions in a Casamance Village

von Samantha Goodchild
This volume explores the practices and perceptions of multilingualism in a rural setting in Senegal. Through an ethnographic-based study of a village in the Casamance, this book illuminates the links between language and spatiality by examining life trajectories, repertoires and language use. The methodological and theoretical findings from a West African rural setting have much to contribute to our overall understanding of multilingualism.
