Une promenade linguistique with a Senegalese street vendor
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Summarising different multilingual encounters, discourses about noise and silence, or about desire and home, this contribution aims at portraying the multi-facetted touristic setting of Mallorca from the angle of a personal language biography. The insights into the touristic landscapes of Mallorca and Senegalese street vendor ́s language use are based on conversations with Ahmed, a Senegalese immigrant in his late twenties, as well as on numerous quick encounters with other tourists, tourism workers, and shopkeepers along the beachfront of the Playa de Palma, and beyond. The conversations took place in different surroundings during extended walks, here summarised as one concise walk for reasons of better representation.
