Multilingualism in Social Media Profiles of South Tyrol

    The aim of the project was to identify and investigate factors of language choice and code-switching on South Tyrolean social media profiles. It used the previously assembled DiDi corpus of Facebook conversations to analyse the written forms of everyday language in South Tyrol. The project analysed the use of different languages as well as different varieties of German.
