The aim of this workshop is to bring together scholars working on issues related to language contact in Turkish in various contact ecologies, both on the individual level and on the population level. We welcome different approaches, including heritage languages, code switching/code mixing, multilingualism, L2/L3-acquisition, creolization, as well as language change. The workshop is organised by the Amsterdam Centre for Language and Communication (ACLC).
