How Code-Switching Affects Communications in the Indian Workplace

Author(s) Grahesh srinivas, Ganesh Vinay, Dr. Reddi Sekhar Reddy
Country India
Abstract Multilingual interactions between individuals from diverse cultural backgrounds are constantly occurring, especially in today’s globalised society Code switching occurs when a speaker alternates between two or more languages or language varieties, in the context of a single conversation or situation. Milroy and Muyksen (1995) mentioned that code-switching is “the alternative use by bilinguals of two or more languages in the same conversation”. This research is to gather and understand the information on code-switching and its effect in Indian workplaces as many Indians are bilingual with the capability of understanding more than one language. Code-switching occurs because at least one speaker wishes to redefine the interaction by moving it to a different social arena. It enables people to connect to one another and create a common bond where people can shed mutual similarities, helping in positive culture and boosts morale. The purpose of this paper is to explore the prevalence of code-switching in Indian workplaces and its various effects on professional communication, identity formation, workplace hierarchy, and team collaboration. We will also examine how code-switching can be both a resource for effective communication and a challenge for organisational cohesion.
