  • Summary

    The chapter extends a third-wave perspective to the sociolinguistic study of multiethnolects. It presents an ethnographic study of variation in an ethnically diverse social housing neighborhood in Denmark. The chapter reports on and discusses analyses of variation in the use of multiethnolect features and the regional dialect (called Funen) with a particular focus on the supra-segmental features ‘multiethnolect staccato’ and ‘Funen intonation’, and the segmental variables (t) and (et). It is shown that multiethnolect features become locally meaningful in contrast to not only standard language, but also the regional dialect. The notion of ‘multiethnolect’ is discussed in a third-wave perspective, and it is argued that we need to look at relations between people, groups, and places, and between varieties and variables.
