English in Israel: A Sociolinguistic Study

Nadel, Elizabeth; And Others

Anthropological Linguistics, 19, 1, 26-53, Jan 77

This study of the role and use of English in Israel was conducted in 1973. Sources used were census figures, personal interviews, surveys, and personal observations. It is concluded that exposure to English is increasing and that Israelis do not seem opposed to this, as Hebrew retains its prominence. (Author/RM)
