摘要

本研究调查了在英语环境中呆三年以上对沙特移民对阿拉伯语L1非语言问候的元语用判断及其人格特征的影响。参与者包括437名成年人，包括三组：英国的沙特二级英语使用者、沙特阿拉伯的沙特人和英国的英国一级英语使用者。他们观察并评价了一种视听刺激，该刺激展示了沙特一级非语言问候行为，如握手和脸颊亲吻。统计分析显示，英国沙特移民的适当性评级与沙特阿拉伯沙特人的不同，与英国英语一级用户的适当性评分接近。此外，沙特移民的恰当性评级与性格特征的关联不同，这两个沙特群体的三个特征不同。这些发现表明，由于长期和强烈接触L2，L1元语言判断和个性发生了变化。根据库克（2012）的多重竞争概念对结果进行了解释。

How Saudi migrants’ metapragmatic judgments of Arabic L1 nonverbal greetings change after intense and prolonged exposure to English

This study investigates the impact of spending more than three years in an English environment on Saudi migrants’ metapragmatic judgments of Arabic L1 nonverbal greetings and their personality traits. Participants are 437 adults comprising three groups: Saudi L2 speakers of English in the UK, Saudis in Saudi Arabia, and British L1 speakers of English in the UK. They observed and rated an audiovisual stimulus illustrating Saudi L1 nonverbal greeting behaviours of handshake and cheek-to-cheek kiss. Statistical analyses revealed that appropriateness ratings by Saudi migrants in the UK diverged from those by Saudis in Saudi Arabia and approximated those of English L1 users in the UK. Moreover, appropriateness ratings by Saudi migrants were differently associated with personality profiles, which differed for three traits between the two Saudi groups. These findings suggest change in L1 metapragmatic judgements as well as personality as a result of prolonged and intense exposure to an L2. The results are interpreted in the light of Cook’s (2012) concept of multicompetence.

期刊介绍： The aim of the International Journal of Language and Culture (IJoLC) is to disseminate cutting-edge research that explores the interrelationship between language and culture. The journal is multidisciplinary in scope and seeks to provide a forum for researchers interested in the interaction between language and culture across several disciplines, including linguistics, anthropology, applied linguistics, psychology and cognitive science. The journal publishes high-quality, original and state-of-the-art articles that may be theoretical or empirical in orientation and that advance our understanding of the intricate relationship between language and culture.
