Abstract

The aim of this paper is to deliver an insight into German-Polish language mixing in the German-Polish border region, and to propose an innovative framework that incorporates the theory of the border into linguistic analysis and illustrates and explains the language contact-induced processes of language border opening, crossing and blurring. Applying this approach on the German-Polish language data I aim to show how interdisciplinary theory on the characteristics of borders can be successfully combined with language analysis.
