N2 - The current study shows that sociolinguistic patterns are reflections and transmitters of social and political patterns. The ongoing modernisation of Israeli Palestinian society, which has resulted in a relatively heterogeneous social structure, is most likely to lead to relatively low conformity to single code. Supporting evidence is found by looking at the social differentiation of Hebrew and English lexical items in the Palestinian Arabic spoken in an Arab village.
