| Abstract | ||
| Code-switching is a term which is widely used by sociolinguists. The phenomenon of code-switching occurs in a bilingual community. So, code-switching is observed in the Department of English and it is performed between the native language of the students (Kurdish) and a foreign language (English) that students are going to gain competence in. The objective of the study is to find out how code-switching can be used as a teaching device in learning a foreign language. This study is divided into five sections. The first is a brief introduction about the term and the phenomenon. The second section is devoted to the language situation in the Department of English. The third one deals with the motivations of code-switching and the fourth section offers the concluding remarks while the fifth one is about the pedagogical implications. | ||
