Just as damaging is a neutral "social image" ("I don't care/I am not interested" or "I do not know" type of attitude). Following the "social support" approach, the theoretical models that explain the process are based on two important dimensions: a structural dimension (which includes the support network and the frequency of social interactions) and a functional dimension (which includes the emotional component – emotional support, empathy and the instrumental component – the practical support, including charity and social, medical or legal services). Although both dimensions are important, the functional one provides better predictors (the quality of relations) about "social support" than the structural one (the quantity of relations) (Joyce 2010, 58-59). Among the factors that affect the "social image," and often the "social support," language is particularly relevant. In the case of remigrants the language may be characterized by a different accent than the one of the community of origin, through improper use of certain words or through the substitution of certain words from the native language with words from the language of the country of migration. These types of elements constitute (superficial) means of identification of a person as belonging or not to the majority group, respectively as belonging to a minority group (Joyce 2010, Nash 1996, 58). In the case of remigrants, language is a "familiar" means and cause for labeling (the Romanian remigrant is called "foreigner" in Italy and "Italian" in Romania). A study on the reintegration of Irish remigrants showed that the relationship between them and the members of the community is contradictory (Ni Laoire 2008). They are expected to have no problem reintegrating into the Irish society but at the same time they are regarded as not being true Irishmen, particularly when they are not born in Ireland (Ni Laoire 2008). Irish remigrants speak always of their belonging to the community of origin, about the family left in the country, but they are aware that they do not belong to that space, remaining fixated between two worlds.

In the case of remigrants the language may be qualify by a different accent than the one of the community of origin, through improper habit of certain words or through the substitution of certain words from the native language with words from the lyric of the country of migration.
