Abstract
► I highlight an example of the continued prevalence of code-based views of language in sociolinguistics. ► Such views are based on an adherence to a telementational view of linguistic communication. ► I offer a Harrisian critique of the theorising behind the notions of polylingualism/polylanguaging. ► Sociolinguistic theory needs to address its fundamental ontological assumptions.
