Abstract

This paper reports on the use of ethnolinguistic vitality as the framework for a sociolinguistic survey measuring attitudes to multilingualism and reporting on the experiences of a community of Northeast Thailand (Isan) that forms part of Thailand's largest minority. The aim of the study was to examine the experiences of participants in a multilingual setting and their attitudes towards past (not reported herein), present and future multiple literacies. The study found support for multilingualism in formal education and multilingual signage, but with signs of intergenerational shift from Lao (Isan) towards Central Thai.
