Download or read book Attitudes and Language written by Colin Baker and published by Multilingual Matters. This book was released on 1992 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book aims to establish the concept of attitudes as more central to the study of minority and majority languages. The strong tradition of attitude theory and research from social psychology is made relevant to language restoration and decay. Original research shows how attitude to bilingualism is conceptually distinct from attitude to a specific language. A piece of research in Wales investigates the origins of language attitudes in individual differences and in environmental attributes.
