abstract:
Language contact studies often focus on features transferred from one language (Source Language) to another (Target Language), and the different settings and conditions in which such transfers may happen. Equally interesting, however, is the problem posed by features that are not transferred. This contribution aims at analyzing one case of resistance to interference, with the ultimate goal of contributing to a predictive theory of the conditions on contact-induced language change.
