摘要

摘要本研究从语用的角度考察了亚特兰大郊区乔治亚州罗斯威尔一个新兴双语社区的主题表达。在罗斯威尔进行的社会语言学访谈中,我们分析了10名墨西哥人在五种不同的语用语境中第一人称单数主语代词(SP)的使用情况:突出指涉物、转换焦点、对比焦点、语用权重和认知插入语。为了探讨英语接触可能削弱语用限制的可能性,本文对queremacemaro的格鲁吉亚语使用者和单语墨西哥人进行了比较。结果表明,与单语墨西哥语品种相比,接触假设在总体显性代词使用方面不受支持,这一点得到了相似频率的证明。然而,研究发现,在突出指涉上下文中显性sp的使用增加,而在切换焦点上下文中显性sp的使用减少,这表明对这种语用限制的敏感性可能减弱。

The discursive distribution of subject pronouns in Spanish spoken in Georgia: A weakening of pragmatic constraints?
Abstract This study examines subject expression from a pragmatic perspective in an emerging bilingual community of Roswell, Georgia, an exurb of Atlanta. Using sociolinguistic interviews conducted in Roswell, first-person singular subject pronoun (SP) usage is analyzed among 10 Mexican speakers within five distinct pragmatic contexts: salient referent, switch focus, contrastive focus, pragmatic weight, and epistemic parentheticals. A comparison is made between Georgia speakers and monolingual Mexican speakers in Querétaro in order to explore the possible weakening of pragmatic constraints due to English contact. Results indicate that a contact hypothesis is not supported in terms of overall overt pronoun usage as evidenced by similar frequencies when compared to monolingual Mexican varieties. However, an increased use of overt SPs in the context of salient referent as well as a diminished use of overt SPs in switch focus contexts is found, suggesting a potential weakened sensitivity to such pragmatic constraints.
