ABSTRACTThis study investigated non-English major students’ (N = 322) perceptions of non-standard lexico-grammatical features of English often considered to be acceptable when those without a common first language use English as a lingua franca to facilitate communication. The participants were recruited from diverse national origins (n = 18) studying in various majors (n= 31). A five-point Likert scale questionnaire was administered to students, asking them to rate the items according to how acceptable or unacceptable they considered them to be. According to the results, the students found just two of the items unacceptable; for the remaining items (n = 11) they expressed no strong opinion. This would seem to suggest a degree of ambivalence: on one hand the students in this study were reasonably tolerant of most of the targeted features, but on the other they held back from being openly accepting. Implications of these findings for teaching practice will be discussed with suggestions for further research.KEYWORDS: English as a lingua francaELFnative speakernon-native speakercorrectness Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the authors.
摘要本研究调查了非英语专业学生(N = 322)对英语非标准词汇语法特征的认知,这些特征在没有共同第一语言的学生使用英语作为通用语以促进交流时被认为是可以接受的。参与者来自不同的国家(n= 18),学习不同的专业(n= 31)。研究人员向学生们发放了一份李克特五分制问卷,要求他们根据自己认为可接受或不可接受的程度对这些项目进行评分。结果显示,学生们发现只有两个项目不能接受;对于其余的项目(n = 11),他们没有表达强烈的意见。这似乎表明了某种程度的矛盾心理:一方面,这项研究中的学生对大多数目标特征都相当宽容,但另一方面,他们又不愿意公开接受。本研究将讨论这些发现对教学实践的影响,并提出进一步研究的建议。关键词:英语作为通用语言;英语母语者;非英语母语者;

ABSTRACTThis article presents the Twitter Corpus of English in Hong Kong (TCOEHK): a 123-million-word corpus derived from sampling tweets across the 18 districts and three geographical (macro-)regions of Hong Kong from 2010 to 2022. It introduces the corpus and demonstrates its utility by examining four linguistic variables found in English in Hong Kong (EngHK) and the dominant variety Hong Kong English (HKE): tense marking, ‘-ize/-ise’ suffix use, adverb syntactic position, and copula (non-)use. It explores their relationship with intralinguistic, stylistic (e.g. formality), and extralinguistic factors (e.g. region, year, affect). The findings show that the distribution of variants in all four variables (e.g. rates of -ize use) is similar to the patterns identified in prior HKE work. In addition to confirming previous research, the results also reveal how intralinguistic, stylistic, and extralinguistic factors can each influence the distribution of variants differently depending on the variable studied, highlighting the complex and ever-changing nature of EngHK. The availability of social metadata and the large size of the TCOEHK make it viable for examining (socio)linguistic variation and changes in contemporary (Twitter-style) EngHK, as well as potential regional and social sub-varieties/styles within EngHK. It promises to advance research on variation and change in EngHK.KEYWORDS: English in Hong Konglanguage variation and changeregional variationBayesian and deep learning methodslanguage and social media AcknowledgementsThis article has benefitted from the support of The Chinese University of Hong Kong Faculty of Arts Direct Grant (Exploring Variation and Change in Chinese-related Multilingual Practices in East Asia, Project # 4051228).Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author.Supplementary materialSupplemental data for this article can be accessed online at https://doi.org/10.1080/13488678.2023.2251771Notes1.

摘要本文介绍了香港推特英语语料库(TCOEHK):一个1.23亿字的语料库,来自2010年至2022年香港18个地区和三个地理(宏观)区域的推文样本。本文介绍了语料库,并通过分析香港英语(EngHK)和香港英语(HKE)中发现的四个语言变量来说明它的实用性:时态标记、“-ize/-ise”后缀的使用、副词句法位置和连词(非-)的使用。它探讨了它们与语言内、文体(如形式)和语言外因素(如地区、年份、影响)的关系。研究结果表明,所有四个变量的变异分布(例如- size使用率)与香港大学之前的研究发现的模式相似。除了证实了之前的研究,研究结果还揭示了语言内因素、语言风格因素和语言外因素如何根据所研究的变量对变体分布产生不同的影响,突出了英语的复杂性和不断变化的本质。社会元数据的可用性和庞大的中文中文资料库,使得它可以用来研究当代(twitter风格)中文中文的(社会)语言变异和变化,以及中文中文中潜在的区域和社会子变体/风格。它有望推进英语变异和变化的研究。关键词:香港英语语言变异与变化区域变异贝叶斯与深度学习方法语言与社交媒体致谢本文获得香港中文大学文学院直接资助项目(探索东亚与中文相关的多语言实践的变异与变化,项目# 4051228)的支持。披露声明作者未报告潜在的利益冲突。补充材料本文的补充数据可在https://doi.org/10.1080/13488678.2023.2251771Notes1上在线获取。自2023年初以来,Twitter改变了其API访问方式,使公众不可能在不支付大笔资金的情况下获取地理位置数据。这使得香港商贸联会更有价值。见http://doi.org/10.17605/OSF.IO/RBFCH.3。使用Grafmiller, Szmrecsanyi和Hinrichs (Citation2018)的方法估计了这两种风格预测因子。我将“北部与非北部”作为一个变量,因为北部地区靠近大陆边界(见图4),该地区讲英语的人可能与生活在边境以外的人有不同的模式。考虑到对社会政治边界(包括中国香港-深圳边界)的研究,这是合理的,这些研究揭示了复杂和动态身份的存在,以及语言行为在身份之间的构建和协商中发挥的核心作用(Danielewicz-Betz & Graddol, Citation2014;Holguín Mendoza, Citation2018;Watt, Llamas, Docherty, Hall, & Nycz, Citation2022).5。使用R包提取情感,该包可以估计字符串的极性。5 .正值表示该话语是积极的,负值表示该话语是消极的(Rinker, Citation2022)。我亦希望借此展示《中华文化交流中心》在进行全面而复杂的社会语言学分析方面的应用。为了实现这一点,我将采用Wang等人的(Citation2019) M3人口统计推断工具,利用最后一个变量作为具体的案例研究。该程序以Twitter识别号码作为输入(该号码可在TCOEHK中获得),并检查Twitter用户的个人资料图像、用户名、屏幕名称和个人简介等各个方面。然后生成指示用户的年龄、性别和实体类型(即组织或非组织)的概率,具有相对较高的精度和召回率(Macro-F1:性别= 0.918,年龄= 0.522,实体类型= 0.898)(Wang et al., Citation2019)。这些概率与输入的或文体的年龄和性别有关,随后可以用来探索copula变量与社会语言学变化的两个有影响的预测因子:年龄和性别之间的关系。即使语料库中没有实际的年龄和性别元数据,也可以进行这种探索,为copula变量与这些人口统计因素之间的联系提供有价值的见解。RegEx术语“did_AUX s (?: n 't_PART s | not_PART s) ?(?:说| | | |想看到|希望| | | | | |来找到需要使用| |帮助看| | | | | |保持工作感觉成为|相信|告诉| |去试着爱| | |基地理解似乎| | | |提供生活开始)_VERB s”和“did_AUX s (?: n 't_PART s | not_PART s) ?(?: | | | |想知道看到|想要| | | |需要去发现了| | |使用来给|帮助看上去| |喜欢| | |保存工作| |了信告诉| | | |喜欢|尝试建立了| | |似乎开始理解| |生活提供)_VERB s。8。这21个“眼睛词”是根据它们在GloWBe语料库中的频率选择的。它们载于说明9.9。

ABSTRACTImplementing mother tongue-based multilingual education (MTB-MLE) in the Philippines opens opportunities for learner inclusion and access, which is also in harmony with UNESCO's Sustainable Development Goal 4 aimed at achieving quality and inclusive education for all. However, recent attempts to revert to Filipino–English bilingual education foreground the ideological tug-of-war that continues to impact policymakers, researchers, educators, and, most importantly, Filipino learners. As the bilingual model is believed to be valuable to economic and technological growth, the role and relevance of MTB-MLE in a globalized world are challenged. We argue that language views espousing covert dominance continue to permeate language policy discourses in the Philippines, which can impact classroom learning and instruction. Hence, this article analyzes the historical milestones of languages in education and looks at how linguistic imperialism is entrenched in language policies. It also situates language use in the Philippines within a broader sociolinguistic context in which it operates. The article concludes with an inclusive framework on language policy implementation, the Naverin (national, vernacular, and international) model, proposing a balanced view of using various linguistic resources, which might be relevant to other multilingual societies in Southeast Asia.KEYWORDS: mother tongue-based multilingual educationPhilippineslanguage policiesbilingual educationEnglishlinguistic imperialism AcknowledgementsThe authors are grateful to the anonymous peer reviewers for their insightful comments and to the first author’s fellow PhD student, Awais Rubbani, for commenting on the revised version of this article.Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationFundingThis work was supported by the None [None].
在菲律宾实施以母语为基础的多语教育(MTB-MLE)为学习者的包容和获取提供了机会,这也符合联合国教科文组织旨在实现全民优质和包容性教育的可持续发展目标4。然而,最近试图恢复菲英双语教育的努力,突显了意识形态的拉锯战,这种拉锯战继续影响着政策制定者、研究人员、教育工作者,最重要的是,影响着菲律宾学习者。由于双语模式被认为对经济和技术增长有价值,MTB-MLE在全球化世界中的作用和相关性受到挑战。我们认为,支持隐蔽优势的语言观点继续渗透到菲律宾的语言政策话语中,这可能会影响课堂学习和教学。因此,本文分析了语言教育的历史里程碑,并探讨了语言帝国主义是如何在语言政策中根深蒂固的。它还将菲律宾的语言使用置于其运作的更广泛的社会语言学背景中。文章最后提出了一个语言政策实施的包容性框架,即Naverin(国家、方言和国际)模型,提出了一种使用各种语言资源的平衡观点,这可能与东南亚其他多语言社会有关。关键词:母语多语教育菲律宾语言政策双语教育英语语言帝国作者感谢匿名同行评议者提出的富有见地的意见以及第一作者的博士生Awais Rubbani对本文修订版的意见。披露声明作者未报告潜在的利益冲突。本研究由[无]资助。

ABSTRACTCambodia’s multilingual and multicultural ecology has in recent decades been largely influenced by globalisation and tourism. International businesses within the tourism industry, such as hotels, often impact the multilingual ecology of societies when they bring with them their linguistic practices and attitudes. This article thus presents the findings from a multi-case study of the linguistic landscape in four hotels in Phnom Penh, which seeks to investigate how language policy and language attitudes influence language use in hotels. A small sample of public signs in four different four-star and five-star hotels was qualitatively analysed and the findings used to complement existing literature on spoken language in hotels. The findings reveal the dominance of English, as well as the visibility of Chinese and Khmer in the linguistic landscape, and the factors contributing to each language’s level of prominence are discussed.KEYWORDS: Linguistic landscapeCambodiaPhnom Penhglobalisationmultilingualismlanguage policylanguage attitudes AcknowledgementsThe author thanks their contacts in Cambodia for collecting data on the LL across various hotels. The author also thanks the anonymous reviewers for their careful reading of the manuscript and their many insightful comments and suggestions. The author also thanks Dr Rita Silver and Dr Mark Seilhamer for their valuable comments on earlier drafts of the manuscript. Finally, the author is grateful for the NTU Research Scholarship that enables their research work.Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author.
摘要近几十年来,柬埔寨的多语言和多元文化生态在很大程度上受到全球化和旅游业的影响。旅游业中的国际业务,如酒店,往往会影响社会的多语言生态,因为他们带来了他们的语言实践和态度。因此,本文介绍了金边四家酒店语言景观的多案例研究结果,旨在调查语言政策和语言态度如何影响酒店的语言使用。我们对四家不同的四星级和五星级酒店的小样本进行了定性分析,并将研究结果用于补充现有的关于酒店口语的文献。研究结果揭示了英语的主导地位,以及汉语和高棉语在语言景观中的可见性,并讨论了影响每种语言突出程度的因素。关键词:语言景观柬埔寨金边全球化多语言政策语言态度致谢作者感谢他们在柬埔寨的联系人收集的数据在各个酒店的LL。作者还感谢匿名审稿人对手稿的仔细阅读和许多有见地的评论和建议。作者还感谢Rita Silver博士和Mark Seilhamer博士对手稿早期草稿的宝贵意见。最后,感谢南洋理工大学的研究奖学金,使他们的研究工作得以开展。披露声明作者未报告潜在的利益冲突。

Does contextual information within a sentence affect the relationship between word level intelligibility and the Functional Load principle among ELF users? A preliminary study 句子中的上下文信息是否会影响ELF用户的词水平可理解性和功能负荷原则之间的关系?初步研究

ABSTRACTThe Functional Load (FL) principle predicts that a high FL phonemic substitution lowers the intelligbility more than a low FL phonemic substitution. However, as yet no study has comprehensively investigated whether contextual information could attenuate any loss of intelligibility due to FL phonemic substitutions. As such, this study investigates the triangular relationship among the FL principle, word level intelligibility, and contextual information within a sentence. A Chinese speaker of English recorded sentences with more and with less contextual information that also had words with no FL substitutions, low FL substitutions, and high FL substitutions. Japanese university students transcribed the missing words from each sentence. The central hypothesis of this study is that missing words with more contextual information within their sentences will be more intelligible than missing words with less contextual information, regardless of any FL substitution. The results supported some of the hypotheses of this study, but not all.KEYWORDS: Functional LoadintelligibilityEnglish as a lingua francapronunciationcontext Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the authors.Supplementary materialSupplemental data for this article can be accessed online at https://doi.org/10.1080/13488678.2023.2251731Additional informationFundingThis work was supported by the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science [JSPS KAKENHI Grant Number 19K13220].
摘要功能负荷(FL)原理预测高FL音位替代比低FL音位替代更能降低可理解性。然而,到目前为止,还没有研究全面调查上下文信息是否可以减轻因FL音位替换而导致的可理解性损失。因此,本研究探讨了FL原则、单词水平可理解性和句子内语境信息之间的三角关系。一名说英语的中国人记录了上下文信息较多和较少的句子,这些句子中也有没有FL替换词、低FL替换词和高FL替换词。日本大学生将每个句子中缺失的单词转录出来。本研究的中心假设是,无论是否使用外来词替代,句子中含有更多语境信息的缺失词都比含有较少语境信息的缺失词更容易理解。结果支持了这项研究的一些假设,但不是全部。关键词:功能负载可理解性英语作为法语发音语境披露声明作者未报告潜在利益冲突。补充材料本文的补充数据可在线访问https://doi.org/10.1080/13488678.2023.2251731Additional information。资金本工作得到了日本科学促进会的支持[JSPS KAKENHI资助号19K13220]。
