Abstract

Bilingual switching refers to a process turning one language into another, including bilingual generating and understanding, and the two kinds of processing mechanisms are different. In conversation and communication, bilingual speakers often use two different languages in order to adapt to different conversation scenarios or to express their thoughts and intentions more clearly. At present, the research on the switching costs and characteristics of the bilingual understanding layer have not been agreed. Based on the author's teaching and practice experience, this paper first analyzed the code switching cost and its characteristics, and then discussed the cognitive mechanism of code switching.
