This paper attempts to bring into focus formal and functional properties of Hindi-English code-switching. Formal features of this bilingual phenomenon are examined mostly with reference to three major grammatical categories: NP, PP, and VP. The analysis is suggestive of the implications of code- switching for language change in contact situations. Two broad categories of the functions of code-switching --social and stylistic --have been posited to highlight some of its uses in the bilingual societal network. Finally, some theoretical issues related to code-switching have been raised and suggestions made for new areas to be explored.
