大学生语码转换的动机分析

在社会语言学中,语言或者语言的任何一种变体统称为语码。在日常交往中说话者经常会使用不同的语码进行交谈,他们通常在使用普通话交谈时会夹杂方言或者英语等其他不同语言,这就是本文要研究的语码转换现象。这一现象是语言接触和跨文化交际的产物,具有一定的社会意义,是指在同意次对话或交谈中使用两种甚至更多的语码。本文首先简述了语码转换的定义并总结了不同语言学家对语码转换的分类,接着以大学生群体中常见的语码转换现象为例分析了这一现象出现的原因。

Languages or any variants of a certain language are called codes in sociolinguistics. Speakers tend to apply different codes into their daily communications. When communicating with standard Chinese, they sometimes pop out their different dialects, English or some other foreign languages in the middle of their sentences for certain reasons. This is the phenomenon this paper is going to study, called code-switching. This phenomenon is the product of language contacts and inter- cultural communications, which has certain social significance. This paper first of all briefly gives the definition of code-switching and concludes the classifications of code-switching made by some sociolinguists. Then it continues to describe the detailed phenomena of codeswitching in college students by giving some examples, as well as analyzes the reasons causing these phenomena.
