On the other hand, Code Mixing(CM) refers to the embedding of linguistic units such as phrases, words and morphemes of one language into an utterance of another language (Myers-Scotton, 1997) . So broadly speaking, CS occurs across sentences/phrases and CM within a sentence/phrases (though some researchers do not distinguish the two). Gumperz (1982) researched specific speech events to examine the relationship between speakers' linguistic choices. They also looked for CS instances, either between languages or between varieties of the same language, to find out in what situation and with what interlocutors, CS occurs and CS may signal various group memberships and identities. Gumperz (1977) found that local dialect carried great prestige, and as a person's native speech is regarded as an integral part of his family background, a sign of his local identity. However, when interacting with members of other communities and with tourists, the residents would use the standard dialect.", "cite_spans": [ { "start": 15, "end": 29, "text": "Gumperz (1982)", "ref_id": "BIBREF6" }, { "start": 366, "end": 387, "text": "(Myers-Scotton, 1997)", "ref_id": "BIBREF13" }, { "start": 533, "end": 547, "text": "Gumperz (1982)", "ref_id": "BIBREF6" }, { "start": 880, "end": 894, "text": "Gumperz (1977)", "ref_id": "BIBREF5" } ], "ref_spans": [], "eq_spans": [], "section": "", "sec_num": null }, { "text": "Foster et al.
