Abstract

Abstract In the linguistic landscapes (LL) literature there is frequent mention of the viewing of public locales by passers-by, owners, and tourists, who necessarily enter and exit locales in different ways, times, and conditions. This paper extends our understanding of the viewing of LL by investigating the discursive constructions of the bathroom of a shared home through the voices of its residents: six Vietnamese international students studying in Australia. When the residents of the home were asked to reflect on their perceptions of language in this locale, the findings show that they attend to the inscriptions on the artifacts, the linguistic activities that take place within the locale, or see no LL whatsoever because of the ways they construct the locale. The findings suggest that linguists need to give more consideration to the types of linguistic activities that occur in a locale in exploration of how individuals view their LL.
将浴室视为共享家庭中的语言景观的话语结构
在语言景观(LL)文学中,经常提到路人、业主和游客对公共场所的观赏,他们必然以不同的方式、时间和条件进出场所。本文通过调查一个共享之家的浴室的话语结构,扩展了我们对LL观的理解,通过其居民的声音:六名在澳大利亚学习的越南留学生。当这个家庭的居民被要求反思他们在这个地方对语言的看法时,调查结果表明,他们注意到文物上的铭文,在这个地方发生的语言活动,或者由于他们构建这个地方的方式,他们没有看到任何语言。研究结果表明,在探索个体如何看待他们的外语时,语言学家需要更多地考虑在一个场所中发生的语言活动的类型。
