# Code-switching **Code-switching** is the practice of alternating between two or more languages or language varieties within a single conversation, sentence, or even phrase. It occurs naturally among multilingual speakers and can serve various social, cultural, and communicative functions. ## Example A Spanish-English bilingual speaker might say: > "I'm going to the store porque necesitamos milk." > > *(Translation: "I'm going to the store because we need milk.")* In this sentence, the speaker switches from English to Spanish ("porque necesitamos" = "because we need") and then back to English ("milk"). This demonstrates **intra-sentential code-switching** (switching within a single sentence), which is common among fluent bilinguals in casual conversation.
