主体语框架模式在教师语码转换结构研究中的应用

A Structural Analysis of a Teacher's Code-switching

本研究运用Myers-Scotton的主体语框架模式,对一名北京高校教师课堂教学语言中的句内语码转换进行了结构方面的分析研究。发现这名中国教师的句内转换具有从汉语转向英语的特定方向性。论文分析了嵌入语英语的词和语言岛(指短语和小句)的内部结构,证明嵌入语英语的成分基本上遵循主体语汉语的语法框架,失去其应有的屈折变化。另外,由于说话人的思维在语码转换时受到主体语语法框架的误导,出现了两类语用错误。

This paper studies the structural characteristics of a university teacher＇s classroom code-switching with reference to Myers-Scotton＇s Matrix Language Frame Model. It is found that Intra-sentential Code-switching has a definite direction： from the mother tongue to the target language.The internal structures of the embedded English words and EL islands basically conform to the Chinese grammatical framework. In addition, psychologically misled by the grammatical framework of the Matrix Language, the speaker gets involved into two types of pragmatic errors.
