Through ethnographic<br>research based on a broad range of data, the processes are revealed that underlie<br>the differentiation between the Dutch and French-speaking members, who fall into different<br>language communities but live in the same village. The complex processes are given a<br>multifaceted view and tell us something about the local history of the Dutch-speaking people<br>which constructs a feeling of ownership of the territory. Language is hereby used to<br>defend the own culture and space and to denominate the differences that are being felt.</p>}, month = {2}, pages = {103-122}, issn = {2736-2175}, publisher={Koninklijke Zuid-Nederlandse Maatschappij voor Taal- en Letterkunde en Geschiedenis}, journal = {Handelingen - Koninklijke Zuid-Nederlandse maatschappij voor taal- en letterkunde en geschiedenis} }
