Using the direct approach in language attitude research, it specifically interrogates attitudes toward using the heritage language (HL) in public domains and maintenance among subsequent generations. It also jointly examines the effect of age and length of stay in the United States on attitudes. Data is sourced via survey and semi-structured interviews from one hundred and twenty-four Yorùbá-English bilinguals residing in New York, Maryland and Texas. Results indicate a positive attitude toward HL use and maintenance among older immigrants (in spite of perceived negative attitudes) compared to the younger ones. Also, findings on attitude toward language maintenance vary depending on the immigrant’s age. Further inferential analysis reveals that age and length of stay are not significant on attitude items collectively but are significant on selected attitude elements.KEYWORDS: Language attitudeheritage languageYoruba-English bilingualsNigerian immigrantsmigrationlanguage maintenance Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1 Gbeborun in Yorùbá parlance means to gossip.2 Borrow pose in Nigerian English parlance means showing off with something that is not yours.","PeriodicalId":46090,"journal":{"name":"International Multilingual Research Journal","volume":"52 16","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134901868","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Cultivating a critical translanguaging space in dual language bilingual education","authors":"Laura Hamman-Ortiz","doi":"10.1080/19313152.2023.2277101","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/19313152.2023.2277101","url":null,"abstract":"ABSTRACTAn area of ongoing debate among bilingual scholars and practitioners is the extent to which instructional languages should be separated in dual language bilingual education (DLBE). This article contributes to and extends this effort by proposing critical translanguaging space as a conceptual lens to guide the design of translanguaging pedagogies in DLBE programs. This concept is grounded in spatial understandings of languaging and learning and comprised of three interrelated dimensions: (1) dynamic languaging, (2) heteroglossic ideologies, and (3) critical consciousness. After outlining these central tenets, I concretize this approach through a case study of a researcher-practitioner collaboration aimed at fostering a dynamic languaging space in a DLBE classroom that had previously enforced strict language separation. Findings reveal the ways in which this project reflected the aims of a critical translanguaging space, including by affirming students’ dynamic bilingual repertoires and identities, reframing linguistic expertise, fostering practice-based understandings of bilingualism, and creating opportunities for interrogating issues of equity. At the same time, the project fell short of cultivating students’ critical consciousness, as critical inquiry was largely relegated to students’ small group conversations. I conclude with a discussion of findings and implications for future efforts at fostering critical and flexible bilingual learning spaces.KEYWORDS: Translanguagingbilingual educationcritical consciousness AcknowledgementI want to thank Maestra Carmen and her second grade students for welcoming me into their classroom and for being willing to engage in this translanguaging experiment with me.
