| Title |
Language Maintenance, Bilingualism and Religion in Gaspé East
|
| Abstract |
The authors examined the extent to which the English and French of Gaspé East in 1970 retained their mother tongue, and whether bilingualism is a step toward language change. While the authors conclude that bilingualism does not spell a rapid loss of one's mother tongue, they discovered that in Gaspé East religion was a determining factor in whether an English-speaking person was bilingual. They found that more English-speaking Catholics were bilingual than English-speaking Protestants.
