Mixed Languages

Mixed Languages is a linguistic phenomenon in the study of language contact that refers to a language variety that systematically combines grammatical and lexical components from two or more distinct languages in a stable and rule-governed manner, distinguishing it from pidgins, creoles, and code-switching by its structural integration and native speaker base.
