المستخلص: The primary aim of this study is to investigate the phenomenon of code switching (CS) among Egyptian university teachers of English language. This study attempts to answer such questions as when and how code- switching occurs among this selected group of teachers who are observed to resort to code-switching through classroom interaction. The study examines the functions of code-switching applied by teachers in the classroom. Data are taken from 10 classes taught by five university teachers (two classes each) at the English Department, Cairo University. Data were collected through audio-recording of classroom interaction, and extracts from the participants' speech were transliterated and analyzed. Findings indicate that there are instances of code-switching (CS) in the classroom discourse of all the five participants by varying levels. The results also reveal that the participants code-switch for a range of both pedagogical and conversational purposes. The findings of this study are taken to be valid only in connection with CS among Egyptian university teachers of English.
