What is code switching?

Code switching is when you change something about the topic of the discussion because of the relationship you have with the people around you. Code-switching is defined as the practice of switching between a primary and a secondary language or discourse. In my situation of code-switching I think I act more like myself when im with my softball friends because we have so much in common. With my Decatur softball friends I feel like no matter who I want to be I can be.


Research Questions

These are some questions I will use to guide my research about code switching:
-I feel angry when a friend of mine code-switches?
-Does Code-Switching make life easier?

codeswitching

I chose to write about the topic code switching because I feel like I need to code switch beween my softball life and decatur and
I want to know why. When I'm with my softball team I feel like I can be myself with some things but not others. when I'm in decatur I feel like I can whoever I want to be and no one will question it. I want to know why they are so different.
