::*''"Those instances of deviation from the norms of either language which occur in the speech of bilinguals as a result of their familiarity with more than one language, i.e. as a result of language contact, will be referred to as INTERFERENCE phenomena."'' (Weinreich 1953:1)
 
 
===Grammar===
 
The verb ''to interfere'' can also be used in this sense ("The phonology of the speaker's native language interferes with the use of the second language.").
 
 
===Comments===
 
The influence of one language on another in the speech of bilinguals is relevant both to the field of [[second language acquisition]] (where the interference from the learner's [[native language]] is studied) and to the field of [[historical linguistics]] (where the effects of interference on language change are studied).
 
 
Second language aquisition researchers have often observed the negative connotations of the term ''interference'', and have in recent decades tended to avoid it, preferring the term [[transfer]].
 
 
Historical linguists have generally focused on languages rather than speakers, and have tended to use the term ''interference'' in a different, historical sense. However, since the term [[contact-induced change]] is now more common for this sense, ''interference'' is not common in historical linguistics anymore either.
 
 
===Polysemy===
 
''Interference'' can refer to the influence on one language on another in speech (as in second language acquisition research), or to the influence of one language on another in language change (as in historical linguistic research) (see [[interference (i.e. contact-induced change)]]). In some contexts, the term may be used in a vague sense that is neutral between the two readings.
 
 
===Origin===
 
The term became well-known through Weinreich's influential (1953) book ''Languages in contact''. Weinreich used the term in both senses (interference in speech and interference in language change).
