Language Practices and Processes among Latin Americans in Europe is an innovative and thematically organised collection of studies dedicated to contemporary sociolinguistic research on Latin Americans across European contexts.

This book captures some of the language practices and experiences of Spanish speaking Latin Americans (SsLAs) across various regions in Europe, addressing language uses, language ideologies and experiences with languages in particular geographical contexts and settings across the ten chapters. The book provides a new lens to study the sociolinguistics of the migratory trajectories of Spanish-speaking Latin American migrants and the situated practices and processes in which they participate in their host societies.

The comprehensive volume will be of interest to researchers in the area of Spanish sociolinguistics, sociology of language and language ideology.
