Abstract

Over the past two decades, language contacts due to migrations have become more diversified. These new forms come from transnational modes of life (coming-and-going) or international living (diasporas), and bring along new linguistic stakes, visible in the development of «emigrant» varieties of transplanted languages, or the adoption of a vehicular language which allows for communication between members of a diaspora.
