Style-switching refers to the act of moving between the language used by one's co-culture and the dominant culture's language. This is a common communication strategy used by individuals who navigate different cultural settings in their daily lives. Doubling speaking, jargon, and metaphorical speaking are all related to language use, but do not specifically refer to the act of switching between different linguistic styles.
