JAFAROVA, Kamala Avadır. Language contacts as one of the forms of realization of bilingualism and interference. Universidad y Sociedad [online]. 2022, vol.14, n.3, pp. 94-101.  Epub June 02, 2022. ISSN 2218-3620.

In modern times, globalization has become widespread among languages as in all other aspects of life. We live in an era of rapid economic, cultural and scientific development, when the connection of languages and the influence of one language on another is inevitable. These language contacts lead to the interaction of peoples and languages, where one of the phenomena that manifests itself in the process of language interaction is bilingualism - both its emergence and expansion. Bilingualism is understood as the ability of a person to communicate in two languages, in which the level of proficiency in one language may be lower than the level of proficiency in a second language. Since bilingualism involves the interaction of two or more languages, it is one of the main and necessary conditions for the emergence of interference, which is defined as changes in the structure of one language under the influence of another language. In this article, the problem of interference is studied in several aspects, primarily psychological, psycholinguistic, sociolinguistic, methodological and linguistic. Within the framework of the linguistic aspect, various concepts of interference are studied, and the main types of interference are characterized. The article examines the concept and emergency of language contact, which expresses the interaction of two or more languages, defines the concept of bilingualism and interference, and examines their various typologies.

Keywords : Bilingualism; interference; language contact; classification of bilingualism; artificial bilingualism.
