The volume deals with previously undescribed morphosyntactic changes appearing in contact settings. Contact-induced changes are dynamic and multiple, involving internal change as well as historical and sociolinguistic factors. Through a multifaceted methodology, the volume takes a fine-grained approach with its roots in a typological perspective. The chapters investigate topics such as the role of multilingual speakers, the differences between contact-induced change and change in endangered languages, and the relationship between contact-induced change and internal change.
