| Popis: | The present paper involves comprehensive socio-psychological features of the Saudi student community at the undergraduate level in the Asir region of Saudi Arabia. It seeks to look at their sociolinguistic profile to understand the influence of the majority ethnic/linguistic community with their language on this group. It focuses on the language maintenance and language shift of the Saudi student speech community living in the Asir region of Saudi Arabia and tries to study and understand their linguistic usage, patterns of language use, identity, status, and patterns of language use occurring in this community. The paper is an attempt to postulate where this linguistic battle is likely to lead. In this regard, many socio-psychological variables were taken and analyzed quantitatively. As for the linguistic profile of Saudi students, all the language speakers are native speakers of Arabic, and most of them are familiar with Arabic. |
