    • Code-switching alone cannot explain intraspeaker syntactic variability: Evidence from a spoken elicitation experiment 

      Lundquist, Bjørn; Westendorp, Maud; Strand, Bror-Magnus S. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-11-16)
      We address the question whether speakers activate different grammars when they encounter linguistic input from different registers, here written standardised language and spoken dialect. This question feeds into the larger theoretical and empirical question if variable syntactic patterns should be modelled as switching between different registers/grammars, or as underspecified mappings from form to ...

    • Morphological variation and development in a Northern Norwegian role play register 

      Strand, Bror-Magnus S. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-11-18)
      This paper investigates the variation in and development of a set of morphological variables in a register known to be used by Norwegian children when engaging in role play. In this register they code-switch to something resembling the standard or Oslo variety for their in-character role utterances. The variation across variables, subjects, and age is demonstrated and discussed, and although most ...

    • Playing With Fire Compounds: The Tonal Accents of Compounds in (North) Norwegian Preschoolers’ Role-Play Register 

      Strand, Bror-Magnus S. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-04-27)
      Prosodic features are some of the most salient features of dialect variation in Norway. It is therefore no wonder that the switch in prosodic systems is what is first recognized by caretakers and scholars when Norwegian children code-switch to something resembling the dialect of the capital (henceforth Urban East Norwegian, UEN) in role-play. With a focus on the system of lexical tonal accents, this ...

    • The roles role play plays : The form and function of bilectal codeswitching in North Norwegian pre-school children’s role play 

      Strand, Bror-Magnus S. (Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2022-08-25)
      It is well known that Norwegian children code-switch from their native dialect to something resembling Central or Standard East Norwegian in their in-character role utterances during role play. Despite this, the structural aspects of the phenomenon are not exhaustively studied and understood, and the function of this role-play register as a tool for communication in role play deserves further ...
