Australian Aboriginal conversational style

该项目旨在重新审查澳大利亚土著人与英裔澳大利亚人对话方式不同的说法。它将大规模地调查和比较这些群体中的普通对话。该项目希望提供新的证据，说明土著人和非土著人的对话规范，指出可能导致不同文化间沟通不畅的差异。预期成果包括濒危语言文件和循证调查结果，以传播给服务提供者、社区和土著组织，改善相互接触的方式。此外，该项目还将以振兴语言的新方法使土著社区受益。

This project aims to re-examine claims that Aboriginal Australians conduct conversations in different ways to Anglo-Australians. It will investigate and compare ordinary conversations in these groups on a large scale. The project expects to provide new evidence to explicate Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal conversational norms, pinpointing differences which may lead to intercultural miscommunication. Expected outcomes include endangered language documentation, and evidence-based findings to disseminate to service providers, to communities and to Aboriginal organisations to improve ways of engaging with each other. In addition, the project will benefit Aboriginal communities with new approaches to language revitalisation.
