摘要

摘要本研究以马来西亚普通话的翻译实践为研究对象,以词汇变化为分析视角,从社会的角度审视语言维度的变化。我们将翻译实践作为一种交际资源,而不是一种教学资源,在多语言社会中具有更广泛的应用相关性。提出了两个发现。首先,我们详细阐述了MM如何与各种传统语言/方言和主要语言/强大语言的翻译词相互交织;其次,我们考察了随着时间、语言类型和地点/地区的不同,翻译词与标准普通话(SM)的差异或标准化情况。我们认为,相互竞争的平衡压力的交集不仅反映了学校/社会的“标准化”过程,而且可以进一步解释为当地翻译实践和当地声音的下降,表明失去丰富的民族和地区遗产和身份的风险。通过为被边缘化的HL使用者发声,本研究超越了对未研究/未充分研究的研究地点或语言现象的描述,暗示了权力和不平等的重要方面,以及对主导政策/话语的微妙抵抗。这对于推进未来的研究和理论,以解决倡导批判性语言意识和包容性政策的努力具有重要意义。

Translingual practice as a representation of heritage languages and regional identities in multilingual society
Abstract By drawing attention to the translingual practices in Malaysian Mandarin (MM), this study uses lexical variations as an analytical lens through which the changes in linguistic dimensions can be viewed from a social perspective. We present translingual practice as a communicative, rather than a pedagogical, resource that has broader applied relevance in multilingual society. Two findings are presented. First, we elaborate on how MM is interwoven with translingual words of various heritage languages (HLs)/dialects and major/powerful languages; second, we examine how translingual words varied from or standardised towards Standard Mandarin (SM) over time, by HL and in place/region. We argue that intersection with competing levelling pressures reflects not only a “standardisation” process at schools/in society but can be further interpreted as the decline of local translingual practices and local sounds, suggesting the risk of losing rich ethnic and regional heritage and identities. By giving a voice to marginalised HL speakers, this study goes beyond the description of an unstudied/understudied research site or linguistic phenomenon, implying important aspects of power and inequality and a subtle resistance against dominant policies/discourses. This could be salient for advancing future studies and theories to address efforts in advocating critical language awareness and inclusive policies.
