摘要

尽管没有被广泛宣传或研究,澳大利亚议会在制定土著语言的法律文本方面正在越来越多地开辟新的领域。关于这一过程的象征意义和它可能为语言保护带来的实际好处,有重要的公众讨论。本文探讨的是一个技术性更强,但同样重要的问题:讲英语的法院如何解释土著语言的法定文本。这一问题需要紧急解决,以使解释方面的焦虑不会阻碍这一领域的持续进展。本文建议的潜在解决办法是,土著语言的法定文本应使用适用于非英语条约的相同原则加以解释。一个工作实例说明了这种解释方法如何在实践中起作用。

Expanding the law’s vocabulary – Indigenous-language legislation and multilingual treaty interpretation
ABSTRACT Although not widely publicized or studied, Australian parliaments are increasingly breaking new ground in enacting statutory text in Indigenous languages. There are important public discussions to be had about the symbolic significance of this process and the practical benefits it may reap for language preservation. This article looks at a more technical, but no less important, issue: how Indigenous language statutory text is to be interpreted by English-speaking courts. This issue demands urgent resolution so that interpretative anxieties do not deter continued progress in this field. The potential resolution suggested by this article is that Indigenous language statutory text be interpreted using the same principles applied to non-English treaties. A worked example illustrates how this interpretative approach might work in practice.
