Dr. Longxing Wei Publishes Third Book

Linguistics Professor Longxing Wei recently completed his third book, Language Contact and Linguistic Aspects of Bilingualism. The book, published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing, consolidates Dr. Wei’s earlier insights and proposes a model of contact linguistics and an innovative approach to the study of bilingualism.

It explores the nature of major language contact phenomena, especially lexical borrowing, mixed languages, bilingual lexical and grammatical processing and representations, second language acquisition, codeswitching, and interlanguage.

Dr. Wei’s research interests include contact linguistics, the bilingual mental lexicon, codeswitching, interlanguage, second language acquisition, and literary stylistics.
