Abstract


When a speaker switches between two or more languages, or languagevarieties, in the context of a single conversation or scenario, this is known ascode-switching or language alternation in linguistics. When multilinguals (thosewho speak more than one language) converse, they may utilise words and phrasesfrom other languages. W e can figure out this kind of phenomenon in a moviebecause code switching is implemented in an oral daily dialogue. It's a lot of funto learn a language through movies (especially if you're trying to improve orperfect a second language). Because movies and television programmes are such asignificant part of people's lives, especially students' lives, incorporating them intothe language classroom makes sense. Film also makes language learning moreengaging and entertaining as a motivation. Film also has the advantage ofproviding a rich and diverse linguistic source. So, the code switching can befound in the film “Luca” by Disney Pixar .
