Multiple people have said that's how they use the phrase...
And maybe it is evolving into that...
But no one has provided a link that backs it up, and definitely not that any that says that was the original meaning.
Hi, linguist by degree, app admin by trade
Code-switching as defined by wikipedia is cool but I learned it with examples like loaned words becoming permanent between languages being one of the major reasons for "code-switching". Worth noting you rarely see this behavior online comparatively, mostly because of prescriptivist assholes like you that insist they know the entire definition of a word. You're a lot more likely to hear code-switching than see it. The provided example (someone asking for the salt in another language) counts.
Here's a link since you can't possibly comprehend being so unbearably wrong on the internet without a link. https://www.britannica.com/topic/code-switching
That's a good article!
It backs up everything I've been saying and absolutely nothing you just said.
Thanks for linking it
Quick edit:
I suggest you read the whole thing, but it's literally in the first sentence:
Having a brain fart is not a "social context or conversational setting".
Oh so you're just a complete dumbass lmao blocked
