The neighborhood makes sense: the languages one chooses to greet people in the street, the language choice in local stores (see chapter 5), street signs and other public examples of language (see chapter 6), the linguistic patterning of the peer-group or gang (Labov 1973), the neighborhood and extended family networks (Milroy 1980).

They spent summers in Que´bec in a totally French-speaking social environment. The twin girls were enrolled in a partial French immersion program in Louisiana; the son had one semester.
