mimolect

English

Etymology

mimo- + -lect

Noun

mimolect (plural mimolects)

  1. A xenolect that has become separated from its matrilect both geographically and communicatively.
    • 1989, Ofelia García & ‎Ricardo Otheguy, English across cultures, cultures across English, →ISBN, page 277:
      At some point in the decreolization process, however, xenolectal structures become masked by surface-structure mimicry of the matrilect, so that the apparent degree of xenolecticity of the evolving mimolect drops below the real level, as represented by the crossover of A-B and C-D.
    • 1990, Edward Herman Bendix, The Uses of Linguistics - Volume 583, →ISBN, page 43:
      In the process, as substantial numbers of black speakers underwent decreolization, their decreolized speech, although technically a mimolect, would have much of the surface form and therefore social status of a true matrilect, and would itself then serve as an additional model for those speakers further behind in the decreolization process.
    • 2009, Anna Maria D'Amore, Translating Contemporary Mexican Texts, →ISBN, page 110:
      As a xenolect develops, it becomes mimolect, that is, a variety whose external appearance resembles that of another (Stewart, 1989: 263-280).
