Language plays a central role in the construction, negotiation, and representation of identity in multilingual societies. In contexts where multiple languages coexist, individuals constantly navigate between linguistic systems that carry cultural, social, political, and symbolic meanings. Drawing on sociolinguistic theories developed by Benedict Anderson (1983), Pierre Bourdieu (1991), Joshua Fishman (1991), and Bonny Norton (2013), this article explores how language contributes to identity construction at both individual and collective levels. The paper argues that language is not merely a communicative system but a symbolic resource through which identities are constructed, negotiated, and transformed.
