Interviewee #________
Minority languages survey
“I am in a class on language and culture at UCSD, and we have been reading about minority
languages. Can I ask you a few questions related to these topics? The interview should not take
longer than half an hour. You don’t have to answer any questions that you don’t want to, and you
can end the interview at any time. This interview will be kept anonymous, and the results are for
class purposes only. Summaries of the anonymous results from all students in the course will be
shared on a course website with the course professor, TAs, and other students in the course.”
