社会语言学对旅游中语言接触的研究提供了一个机会，可以检验不同语言群体在特殊情况下的交流：外国人的高度临时性和当地人对他们的高度语言适应。这种情况与外来工人和移民形成鲜明对比，他们不是临时的，通常地位较低，在语言上适应当地人。虽然由当地人提供住宿在几乎所有旅游情况下都是常见的，但当地人对游客语言的熟练程度差别很大，因此游客被迫在语言上迁就的程度也很大。在努力组织旅游的语言变化，旅游角色的类型学被用作主要框架。介绍了“语言中介”的概念。社会学和社会语言学分析的整合是由旅游文献和泰国实地考察的附带数据说明的。
The sociolinguistic study of verbal encounters in touristic situations provides an opportunity to exanine communication between different linguistic groups under unusual circumstances: the high temporariness of the foreigners and the high degree of linguistic accommodation of the locals to them. This state of affairs stands in marked contrast to the tendency of guestworkers and immigrants who are less temporary and usually of lower status, to accommodate linguistically to the locals. While accommodation by locals is common to virtually all touristic situations, the degree of proficiency of locals in the tourists' language varies considerably and hence also the extent to which tourists are forced to accommodate linguistically. In an effort to organize the linguistic variation in tourism, a typology of tourist roles is used as the principal framework. The notion of “language brokerage” is introduced. The integration of sociological and sociolinguistic analyses is illustrated by incidental data from the literature on tourism and from fieldwork in Thailand.
