Abstract

Drawing on social media context such as Facebook of international students from the Global South – Mongolia – in Australia, this article indicates that the diversity of “languaging” practices of migrants who come to settle in Australia from the Global South are better understood from the perspective of the “normativity of diversity”. The notion of “languaging” is vital in capturing the current complexity of mixed and hybrid language practices fundamentally produced by the amalgamation of linguistic and cultural resources intersecting with Global South and North social, cultural and political landscapes. However, these languaging practices in Australia are neither non-normal nor substandard linguistic productions as mostly imagined in the local monolingual ideology. Instead, languaging practices of the migrants from the Global South in Australia should be understood as part of the new settlers’ normative daily linguistic practices that cut across both online and offline settings. Consequently, it is crucial for language educators and language policy-makers in Australia to reconsider migrants’ linguistic diversity in globalisation through the eyes of the “normativity of diversity”.

全球南方的非规范性和全球北方的规范性:语言作为多样性的规范性
本文以全球南方蒙古留学生在澳大利亚的Facebook等社交媒体背景为例,指出从“多样性的规范性”的角度可以更好地理解来自全球南方的移民在澳大利亚定居的“语言”实践的多样性。“语言”的概念对于捕捉当前混合和混合语言实践的复杂性至关重要,这种复杂性根本上是由语言和文化资源与全球南北社会,文化和政治景观交叉的融合所产生的。然而,这些语言实践在澳大利亚既不是不正常的,也不是不合标准的语言产物,大多是在当地的单语意识形态中想象出来的。相反,来自全球南方的移民在澳大利亚的语言实践应该被理解为新定居者的日常规范语言实践的一部分,这些语言实践跨越了线上和线下的环境。因此,对于澳大利亚的语言教育者和语言决策者来说,通过“多样性的规范性”来重新考虑全球化中移民的语言多样性是至关重要的。
