Key aspects of activity
- Melissa Mujkić is a doctoral researcher in Luxembourgish Linguistics at the University of Luxembourg.
- Her research interests include sociolinguistics, media linguistics, variational linguistics, and linguistic landscapes. Her current project focuses on Luxembourgish youth communication on WhatsApp. Analyses will be conducted using a mixed-methods approach to showcase language use, variational structures, code-switching, code-mixing, etc. A corpus of WhatsApp chats with Luxembourgish as the base language will be compiled using the Mobile Communication Database 2 (MoCoDa2) and provided on a voluntary basis by adolescents aged between 12 and 19 years who will be actively involved as citizen scientists in the data collection process. The findings of this study will contribute to research on digital communication among youths in Luxembourg.
