Description

Abstract (cited)

The following article examines the occurrence of Latin within the medieval Irish Life of Saint Patrick, the Vita Tripartita Sancti Patricii, from syntactical, lexical and functional points of view. Some tendencies for codeswitching in the text can be discerned. In accordance with Müller (1999), 'marking off' in the broadest sense can be advanced as the main function for codeswitching, though this does not provide an overall explanation.
