Dissertation summary
Eman El Sherbiny Ismail’s project “Display of Emotion in Multilingual Interaction: Family Portraits” investigates language choice in displaying emotion in everyday parent-child interactions with an understanding of codeswitching as an additional resource for the construction of emotional stance. The study relies on empirical data collected through interviews and self-recorded conversations among family members during several everyday activities. (for further information on the Multilingual Family Portraits (MFP) Corpus, see here).
