大学校园语码转换的动机研究

论文摘要

语言是复杂的社会现象,在两个或多个语言有接触的情况下,会有语码转换现象的发生。自上个世纪70年代被首次提出以来,语码转换一直受到学术界的关注。很多学者对语码转换的成因,功能及其影响因素作了研究。然而对发生在具体人群或环境中的语码转换动机分析还很少。本文通过实际校园语料收集和资料调查,运用西方研究语码转换动机的代表理论,对大学校园内语码转换的动机进行了系统的分析。本文为个案研究,语料主要来源于哈尔滨市三所大学。作者主要根据Gumperz的情景型和喻意型语码转换理论以及Scotton的标志模式,对语料进行了分析。研究结果表明,校园语码转换的动机主要有语言动机,社会心理动机和其他动机三个方面。语言动机有填补词汇空缺,避免歧义,准确引用和遵循节约原则;社会心理动机有情景改变,使用喻意,标志性选择和无标志性选择,语言靠拢和偏离,以及婉约语;其他方面的动机包括表达幽默,追求流行,缓和语气,强调对比,文化冲突和显示身份等。
