Product Description

This fascinating study explores male youth language practices in different urban centres in Africa, showing their relation to other urban languages, vernaculars and varieties, and testing and contesting claims of their autonomy and candidacy as national languages. It will provide new insights for scholars of language contact and sociolinguistics.
