台湾语言意识的流变及“台语”的产生——从移民社会到殖民地社会的历时考察

The Change of Taiwan Residents Language Consciousness and the Emergence of “Taiwan Residents”——A Diachronic Investigation from Immigrant Society to Colonial Society

本文结合明清至日据时期台湾的社会状况,对台湾语言意识的流变进行历时考察,同时探讨"台语"在日据时期形成的始末。通过研究,本文发现:(1)日据之前,移民族群的语言意识主要表现为对祖籍地方言的认同,但语言差异的程度也造成了族群认同的层级差异;(2)日据时期,"台湾语"或"台语"概念由日本人提出,但台湾人的"台语"意识则是随着殖民同化的加强而逐步建立。

Based on the social conditions of Taiwan during the Ming and Qing dynasties to the Japanese Occupation,this paper examines the change of the Taiwan Residents language consciousness and explores the origin of 'Taiwan Residents' during the Japanese colonial period.In this paper,the following conclusions are presented:(1)Before the Japanese Occupation,the language consciousness of the immigrant groups were mainly the recognition of the ancestral dialects,but the degree of language difference also caused the leveled difference of ethnic identification;(2)During the period of Japanese Occupation,the concept of'Taiwan Residents'was first proposed by the Japanese,but the'Taiwan Residents'consciousness of the Taiwan Residents people was gradually formed with the strengthening of colonial assimilation.
