Code-Intermediate Phenomena in Medieval Mixed-Language Business Texts.
Wright, Laura
Language Sciences, v24 n3-4 p471-89 May-Jul 2002
Discusses a written linguistic system, evidenced in medieval mixed-language business texts, that was replaced by Early Modern English. Examines medieval mixed-language business writing from the point of view of suffix mergers, as the lack of language specific suffixes resulted in code-intermediate states. (Author/VWL)
