摘要这篇文章探讨了在报价系统持续快速变化的过程中,个体一生中发生的不稳定程度和种类。两项对比分析追踪了说话者在较短和较长时间跨度内使用BE LIKE的情况。趋势数据显示,这种强劲的变化在中年人群中停滞不前;30多岁的演讲者似乎表现出与社区范围的变化背道而驰的“倒退运动”(Sankoff&Wagner 2006)。这一发现可以被解释为早期的年龄分级。在初次采访42年后收集的一份小规模小组样本表明,一些年长的发言者参与了这一趋势,尽管频率非常低。这一发现虽然目前还处于探索阶段,但可以被解释为“寿命改变”的迹象(Sankoff 2005)。因此,将报价系统中正在进行的变化视为单调的概念将低估和高估变化的速度。(跨越一生的变化、年龄分级、逆行变化、寿命变化、语录、风格、语言意识形态)*
Abstract This article explores the degree and kind of lability that occurs throughout the life span of the individual during ongoing rapid change in the quotative system. Two comparative analyses trace speakers' use of be like across a shorter and a longer time span. Trend data reveal that the robust change is arrested in the middle age brackets; speakers in their thirties seem to display ‘retrograde movement’ (Sankoff & Wagner 2006) away from the community-wide change. This finding could be interpreted as incipient age-grading. A small-scale panel sample collected forty-two years after the initial interview suggests that some older speakers participate in the trend, albeit at very low frequencies. This finding, while exploratory at the moment, might be interpreted as indicative of ‘life-span change’ (Sankoff 2005). A conception of the change in progress in the quotative system as monotonous would thus both under and overestimate the rate of change.
