Abstract

Language is used to express role relationships between individuals. The
link between language and identity is often so strong that a single feature of language
use suffices to identify someone’s membership in a given group. If we hear people
speak Italian, Japanese, or African American English, we assume they are Italian,
Japanese, and African American, and if we hear English spoken an Arabic accent, we
assume the speaker to be an Arab. It means the language spoken by somebody and his
or her identity as a speaker of this language are inseparable. Language is integral to
the development of identity. The ways in which a person views the world are molded
by their language development. This paper would like to discuss about the
relationship between identity and language and how the native language influences on
establishing the immigrants’ identity.
