Abstract

The thesis seeks to highlight the scope of using code-switching (CS) in Kuwait university and Public Authority for Applied Education and Training (PAAET) on the part of staff members and students. CS is a linguistic phenomenon in the sub-branch of sociolinguistics. The research is descriptive, analytic, critical and objective, based on statistics. The researcher describes and criticizes the two schools, pro and against the use of CS. CS is a controversial issue that goes deep into the context of society and the educational system in Kuwait. It is part and parcel of the thorny problems of teaching. Researchers and scholars are divided into two sections: pro and against. Each team have their own incentives and impulses. The supporting team regards it as a teaching strategy. Therefore, it is a vital remedy to the weak-level students, while the other team is of the opinion that it destroys the perfection process of the target language (TL). This, in turn, affects performance and competence. The thesis is real in the sense that it applies three surveys to staff members and students to live the situation on realistic and linguistic basis. The linguistic background in Kuwait affects the teaching process due to the fact that Kuwait is a multicultural society, so opinions vary. Divergent opinions are the outcome as for using CS. Key Words: code-switching, sociolinguistics, language contact, code-mixing
