This research tried to find some novel features of the Tunisian middle class using ego network analysis as well as to evaluate what past sociolinguistic studies have said concerning language use in the multilingual and multicultural Tunisian society. Revealing individual language usage in diverse situations better identifies the tendencies of the general population of the middle class. We also focus on the efficiency of a mixed approach, combined methods of qualitative and quantitative data. The paper shows that the middle class change languages according to various alters under various situations and reveals how language diversity can reflect Tunisian society.
