Abstract

A “diaspora language” refers to the languages that are spoken by people in a “diasporic” community – that is, a group of people scattered around to different places in the world but having (or feeling that they have) a shared common ancestry. These languages are formed and reformed in relation to language ideology. These diaspora languages are used to foster solidarity and notions of a common identity among the members of the community, or facilitate communication between differing subgroups of these dispersed populations.
