摘要

泰卢固语是一种官方语言,在印度安得拉邦和特伦加纳邦普遍使用。尽管它是世界上最大的语言之一,但它在马来西亚是一种少数民族语言。大多数迁移的泰卢固人定居在种植园,即霹雳州的Bagan Datoh(被称为泰卢固人遗产)。本研究采用领域分析的方法,了解年轻一代和老一代在家庭、社会、娱乐、宗教和官方等领域的语言选择以及他们的语言态度。本研究采用混合方法。问卷调查附有访谈和焦点小组讨论。语言的变化体现在识字上,但在最年轻的一代中又重新焕发了活力。在口语中,泰卢固语保持得很好,特别是在家庭领域,与其他语言共存。对母语的积极态度和振兴努力对蒲甘拿都泰卢固语的维护产生了有利的影响。

Language Shift and Maintenance: A Case Study of the Telugu Community in Bagan Datoh, Perak (Malaysia)
Telugu is an official language, commonly spoken in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, India. Despite being one of the largest languages in the world, it is a minority language in Malaysia. Majority of the Telugus who migrated, settled in the plantation estates i.e Bagan Datoh, Perak (known as a Telugu heritage site). This study employs domain analysis to find out language choice in home, social, entertainment, religious and official domains among the younger and older generation as well as their language attitude. This study uses mixed methods. Questionnaire surveys were accompanied by interviews and focus groups discussions. Language shift is observed in literacy but being revitalized among the youngest generation. In spoken language, Telugu is well maintained especially in the home domain, coexisting with other languages in a diglossic relationship. Positive attitude towards mother tongue and revitalization endeavors demonstrate a favorable influence on the maintenance of the Telugu language in Bagan Datoh.
