摘要

肯尼亚宪法承认斯瓦希里语为国家语言,也是与英语并列的官方语言。因此,它是官方和非官方场合的交流工具。例如,Taifa Leo报纸用斯瓦希里语向读者提供环境信息。这意味着许多能阅读的人都能接触到环境新闻。环境问题在国内和国际上都是一个跨领域的敏感问题。环境每天都以这样或那样的方式影响着每一个生物的生活。包括《台湾日报》在内的平面媒体,肩负着向公众宣传世界环境问题的使命,应该以一种让人们了解环境重要性的方式来宣传,从而以一种积极的方式与环境互动。这种观点源于这样一种信念,即一个人重视并关心他或她所理解的东西。因此,本研究旨在确定Taifa Leo报纸传达环境信息的语言选择是否有助于受众如何理解信息以及最终由这种理解产生的行为。本研究分析了Taifa Leo报纸记者在报道环境新闻时选择的语言特征,以确定语言的选择是否有助于对预期的环境问题的报道,并最终解释语言元素的选择是否与环境新闻中出现的信息的意义有任何关系。这项研究是在图书馆进行的,环境话语进行了分析。有目的地选取了2021年1月至2022年3月期间发行的Taifa Leo报纸,从所选报纸中提取具有环境信息的文本。数据是根据Taifa Leo报纸中所选文本中环境信息的表述语言进行分析的。

CHOICE OF LANGUAGE IN THE REPORTING OF ENVIRONMENTAL NEWS IN TAIFA LEO NEWSPAPER IN KENYA
Kiswahili is recognized by the Constitution of Kenya as the national language and also the official language alongside English. It is therefore the tool of communication in both official and non official contexts.For instance, Taifa Leo newspaper presents environmental information to readers in Kiswahili. This means that many people who can read have access to news on environment. The environment is a cross-cutting and sensitive issue nationally and internationally. Environment affects the life of every creature on a daily basis in one way or another. The print media, the Taifa Leo included, which has been tasked with informing the public about the world's environmental issues, ought to do so in a way that will enable people to understand the importance of the environment and thus interact with it in a positive way. This argument stems from the belief that a person values and cares for what he or she understands. This study therefore aims to determine whether the choice of language in conveying environmental information in the Taifa Leo newspaper contributes to how the audience understands the information and ultimately the behaviours generated by that understanding. This study analysed the language features selected by journalists in reporting on environmental news in the Taifa Leo newspaper to ascertain if the choice of language contributes to the reporting of intended environmental issues and finally to explain whether the choice of language elements has any relationship with the meaning of information emerging from the environmental news.This study was conducted in a library where environmental discourse was analysed. Taifa Leo newspapers published from January 2021 to March 2022 were selected purposively, by extracting texts from the selected newspaper that had environmental information. Data was analysed based on language used in presentation of environmental information in selected texts from Taifa Leo newspapers.
