CHAPTER 8 OVERALL SUMMARY genre of the examined corpus was semi-structured sociolinguistic interviews (Chapter 6), subjects relied on the act of code-switching mostly to fulfill various discourse-related functions. As Perspective and Faith include the most numerous discourse-related functions, they emerged the most freguently in the corpus. The other three functions Solidarity, Face, and Power emerged less frequently as these functions reflect the dynamics of interpersonal relations. However, the frame of the interviews — mainly dinner conversations — is a least appropriate context to stimulate interpersonal dynamics. I have examined how the sociopragmatic constraints governing the sociopragmatic meaning-making mechanism of code-switching interact with one another (Chapter 7).
