Languages in Contact: The Partial Restructuring of Vernaculars
Holm, John (Universidade de Coimbra, Portugal)
This 2003 book accounts for the structural differences between 'non-Creole' language varieties - such as African-American English - and their European source languages. John Holm argues that these differences resulted from 'partial restructuring', whereby some of the source languages' features were retained, but many features from the non-native speakers' language were also introduced.
