Language contact\, emerging from the interaction of speakers and their languages\, \;is one of the major shapers of language use an d language development. In the field of the study of language\, language c ontact has thus not only informed investigations into how languages are re lated and have historically developed and influenced each other\, but also \, and perhaps even more so\, how languages interact in everyday language use of speakers. This focus has become particularly prominent with a “mu ltilingual turn” in linguistics.

The description and analysis of how languages interact depends on identifying the manifestations of langu age contact. A core endeavour of research in the field has revolved around this issue and a great number of labels and descriptors have been put for ward with the aim of capturing the processes that underlie the different m anifestations of contact in language use and development. This talk will a pproach this issue from a cognitive perspective using the categories of bo rrowing\, codeswitching\, transfer and replication to differentiate major processes of language contact. Examples from English influence on German a nd from other language contact situations involving the English language w ill illustrate these major manifestations of contact as well as their pote ntial interrelations and the intricacies in their classification.
