This edited volume offers diverse theoretical and empirical research written by both emerging and seasoned researchers within the field of language practice from South Africa and beyond. The diversity observed in the contents of this book emphasises the depth and breadth of language research. The chapters are interdisciplinary and include translation, sociolinguistics, onomastics and sociocultural topics that fall within the domain of language practice. This interface of disciplines, which were previously regarded as stand-alone, shows how indigenous language research has advanced. This broadens the scope for novel research in the field of languages, leading to the promotion and wider recognition of indigenous languages, in particular.
