La transmission de la langue maternelle aux enfants : le cas des couples linguistiquement exogames au Québec
|
| Abstract |
The number of unions where both partners do not share the same mother tongue has grown substantially over the recent decades in Quebec. Given that children born to these unions live in a multilingual family setting, the author studied the mother tongue transmitted to these children. Using the 2006 Canadian Census data, different analyses have been conducted. These were intended to identify the mother tongue transmitted to children born to mixed-language unions. In addition, using logistic regression, she examined the contextual, ethno cultural and socioeconomic determinants explaining the choice to transmit French or English as a mother tongue to children. The results show a predominance of the two official Canadian languages in mixed-language families, at the expense of non-official languages as well as an additional attraction exerted by the English language. Furthermore, the choice of the transmitted mother tongue is influenced, among others things, by the place of residence, the parent’s migration path and the children’s birthplace.
