Life after Death Impact Sociolinguistic

项目摘要

Many minority linguistic communities are affected by language death. However, in some communities, policy makers, activists, and speakers themselves have succeeded in reversing this shift towards the majority language (Fishman, 1991). Linguistic revitalisation often focuses on recruiting 'New Speakers' (henceforth NS) to bolster the language. Hornsby (2015: 108) defines NS as a "category of speakers that stands apart from others in 3 ways: transmission, attitude, andorigin". They are speakers who acquired the minority language through education or in a formal setting, are positively disposed towards it, and who may not originate from one ethno-linguistic group. My project will examine the language use of NS of Manx, the Celtic minority language of the Isle of Man; a unique community which lost its cohort of native speakers, the language being kept alive by NS.I will investigate to what extent and in what ways we can use sociolinguistic factors to explain differences in linguistic structure across Manx NS, according to the following questions:1.How can we describe the morphosyntax of spoken revitalised Manx?a. In what ways and to what extent does the morphosyntactic structure Manx differbetween speaker groups?b. How and to what extent can we understand these differences within an NSframework (i.e. involving language acquisition)?2.What sociolinguistic differences are there between groups of Manx speakers e.g. with regards tolinguistic attitudes/identity?a. How do ideas of 'good language use' differ between groups?b. To what linguistic models might Manx NS be aspiring?3.How do the above findings differ from those of linguistic minority communities that have nativespeakers?a. What implications do the findings have for NS frameworks which rely on oppositionbetween New and native speakers to explain NS language?

许多少数民族语言社区受到语言消亡的影响。然而，在一些社区，政策制定者、活动家和使用者自己已经成功地扭转了这种向多数语言的转变（Fishman, 1991）。语言复兴通常侧重于招募“新发言人”（以下简称NS）来加强语言。Hornsby（2015: 108）将NS定义为“在传播、态度和起源三方面与其他人不同的一类说话者”。他们是通过教育或在正式环境中获得少数民族语言的人，他们对这种语言有积极的倾向，他们可能不是来自一个民族语言群体。我的项目将研究马恩岛的凯尔特少数民族语言马恩岛的NS语言的使用；一个独特的社区，失去了它的母语群体，语言被NS保留了下来。根据以下问题，我将调查我们可以在多大程度上和以何种方式使用社会语言学因素来解释马岛群岛语言结构的差异：1。我们如何描述复兴的马岛语口语的词法？在不同的说话人群中，曼克斯语的形态句法结构有什么方式和程度上的不同？我们如何以及在多大程度上理解NSframework中的这些差异（即涉及语言习得）？马岛语使用者群体之间存在什么社会语言学差异，例如在语言态度/身份方面？“良好的语言使用”在不同的群体中有什么不同？Manx NS可能追求什么样的语言模型？上述发现与有母语人士的少数语言社区的发现有何不同？这些发现对依赖于新母语和母语者之间的对立来解释NS语言的NS框架有什么影响？
