Zielsetzung und Themenschwerpunkte (Objectives and Key Themes)

This dissertation aims to explore the morphosyntactic constraints that govern code-mixing in English-Pashto bilingual speech. It seeks to understand how speakers of both languages navigate the complexities of language mixing, focusing on the grammatical rules and structures that guide this process.

• Morphosyntactic Constraints in Code Mixing
• Language Contact and Bilingualism
• English-Pashto Code Mixing Patterns
• Grammatical Rules and Structures
• Sociolinguistic Factors Influencing Code Mixing
