Introduction
No full textThe introduction is split into three parts. In the first, we provide some background for the book, provide key definitions and reflections on minoritized languages and diaspora languages, and identify overarching themes in the book. In the second, we provide a summary overview of each of the 12 chapters, mentioning the languages investigated, the methods used, and the main findings. Finally, in the third part we reflect on the scope of the book itself and conclude with remarks on multilingualism and minoritization, positing that monolingualism should not be considered the default or status quo -- quite the opposite, in fact. The research here suggests that fighting againt monolingualism as an increasing trend involves not just scientific work, but also social activism
Episode 21: Matt Eicheldinger: Educator Turned Author
No full textMatt Eicheldinger, B.A. \u2709, M.A. \u2712 is an educator who used stories from his life to motivate his middle school students. When he found that not only were these stories effective, when written down, they inspired even the most reluctant of readers. This put Matt down a path of becoming a published author.

When the book became a hit, he was able to sign with an agent who quickly sold Matt Sprouts to a publisher. Matt shares how he became interested in being an educator, how he navigated the process of becoming a published author, and his future plans for more books

We show that regional varieties of CA reflect Aymara and Quechua mood, even in the speech those who do not speak either indigenous language by illustrating the emerging strategies used to express the modal values in Aymara and Quechua grammar on different structural levels. We also elaborate on how contact induced change arises from multiple impulses
