*CHILE* has it's roots in the timeless-classic: *8585*, but with the added 'side-eye' for maximum convenience, satisfying any scenario where you might find yourself needing to hate on the downlow.

Coda-talk is, “a highly creative combination of ASL and spoken English that is both voiced and signed” which “alternately follows the grammatical and syntactic rules of both languages". (Preston, 1994, p. 222-223)

"Orange Eyes: Bimodal bilingualism in hearing adults from deaf families" Written by: Michele Bishop and Sherry Hicks

[Abstract] These studies have looked at a wide range of topics in spoken language bilinguals such as patterns of code switching, the role of code switching in community life, the success or failure of bilingual education, and second language learning and gender as well as many other issues; all focusing on single modality bilinguals (using two spoken languages). These studies are often not applicable to the study of bimodal bilingualism in which the person knows a sign language from birth and the spoken language of the larger, hearing society. The study of bilingualism in hearing people from deaf families offers an opportunity to analyze how native users of both a signed and a spoken language combine aspects of both languages simultaneously (code blending). The perceived lower status of American Sign Language in relation to English may also contribute to how these bimodal bilinguals view and use their languages. Unlike spoken language bilinguals who must stop one language before beginning another, a bimodal bilingual has the capability to speak and sign at the same time. This linguistic capability will serve to inform and expand the field of bilingualism, discourse analysis and the role of code blending as a cultural identifier. [source: Link
