One generation, two languages: second-generation heritage speakers of Croatian

As people migrate around the world for economic and other reasons more extensively than ever, the interest in the topic of language contact in the émigré context is growing steadily. This paper examines some aspects of language contact in a Croatian-English bilingual speech community in Canada. More precisely, the primary goal of the paper is to better understand language use and proficiency among second-generation Croatian Canadians. In officially multicultural Canada, the roles of Croatian and English are both complementary and distinct. In fact, there is an obvious imbalance in the position and use of the two languages. Whereas English functions as a majority or dominant language (one of the two official languages), Croatian is a minority or heritage language. Generally, English is the language used in the public sphere, it is the language of public institutions, the language of work and business ; Croatian is the language used in the private sphere, it is the language of home, the language used with family members and friends. The data for this study was collected in the Croatian community in the greater Toronto area through a sociolinguistic questionnaire and face-to-face interviews with informants. In order to describe linguistic practices in the community and create a linguistic profile of a prototypical second- generation heritage speaker of Croatian, the study focuses on the following issues: the acquisition of language skills in English and Croatian, the use of the two languages in everyday life, the learning of the heritage language, and attitudes towards the heritage language maintenance.
