    In multilingual communities, people may speak more than one language depending on the domain of use. The domains include participants in a conversation, the setting, and the topic. For example, in a family interaction at home, the participants would be family members, the setting would be at home, and a common topic could be planning a family party. The domains of language use help determine what language is chosen in multilingual settings and conversations.
