This book studies women's language use in bilingual or
multi-lingual cultural situations. The authors - social
anthropologists, language teachers, and interpreters cover a wide
variety of geographical and linguistic situations, from the death
of Gaelic in the Outer Hebrides, to the use of Spanish by Quechua
and Aymara women in the Andes. Certain common themes emerge:
dominant and sub-dominant languages, women's use of them;
ambivalent attitudes towards women as translators, interpreters and
writers in English as a second language; and the critical role of
women in the survival (or death) of minority languages such as
Gaelic and Breton.
