Abstract
The Slovenian community in multicultural Toronto functions with two official languages: English and French. In my contribution, I place Slovenian among heritage languages brought by speakers from their authentic environment – in this case, the Slovenian-speaking environment – on immigrating and transmitted to the next generations of the Slovenian immigrants’ descendants. I deal with a position of Slovenian as a heritage language in the Slovenian community. I am interested in the role of Slovenian with three types of language users identified with a help of heritage language theory.
