▼ As Spain has experienced unprecedented levels of immigration in the last few decades many researchers have investigated the various policies and practices regarding the language education of immigrant students. The literature indicates that in both monolingual and bilingual regions immigrant students are viewed as linguistically deficient and are often marginalised in classroom practices, which impedes their ability to integrate and contributes to their academic failure. Additionally, in regions like Madrid with little recent history of linguistic and cultural heterogeneity, the literature has found that monolingual and monocultural ideologies often underlie the policies and practices of language education. These ideologies are not restricted to the abstract institutional level, but have also been revealed to exist amongst Spanish teachers and administrators who discursively and interactionally rank immigrant students hierarchically based on their place of origin (Relaño Pastor, 2009; Martín Rojo, Relaño Pastor & Rasskin Gutman, 2010). The research that has highlighted these shortcomings in Spain’s current educational system has focussed mainly on the examination of policy and classroom interaction and relied on the input of teachers, administrators, and immigrant students and their families, but has largely ignored native Spanish, or autochthonous, students. Are autochthonous students in a monolingual region guided by the same monolingual and monocultural ideologies as Spanish teachers and administrators when it comes to evaluating immigrant languages and those who speak them? Through a language attitudes survey, the current study provides the first look at autochthonous students’ opinions and views about the some of the most common immigrant languages in Spain today—Romanian, Latin American Spanish, Arabic and Chinese. It also surveys the students' language attitudes towards English and French, their two curricular languages, and analyses the attitudes for four variables: grade level, gender, language curriculum the students study in and language(s) spoken in the home. It was found that students expressed neutral-to-favourable attitudes towards all six languages in the study and the most favourable opinions about English and English speakers and French and French speakers. Regarding the immigrant languages, students reported more favourable attitudes towards Latin American Spanish and its speakers than (in descending order) Chinese and Chinese speakers, Arabic and Arabic speakers and Romanian and Romanian speakers. The variables language reported as spoken in the home and gender account for significant variance, while grade level and CLIL curriculum do not. Advisors/Committee Members: Joseph, John.

▼

Hong Kong is widely known as a bilingual city. In addition to the locally spoken Cantonese, the vast majority of Hong Kong Chinese people are also able to speak English, the ex-colonial and the international language which has played an important role in the community since the colony was founded. This linguistic situation has given rise to a local variety of English. Recognising the distinct form and function of this variety, scholars (e.g. Bolton 2002, Joseph 2004: 132-161) have argued that the linguistic features in the English spoken by Hong Kong people should be identified as Hong Kong English (HKE).

Observing that certain Hong Kong English features specific to computer-mediated communication (CMC) have been developed through communication among bilingual Hong Kong Chinese on the internet, I believe that Hong Kong English in CMC should be seen as a distinct variety. To support my argument, I have, in this thesis, re-examined the notion of linguistic variety. This in turn has required an investigation into the nature of the linguistic norms that define a ‘systematically different’ form of language.

I begin my study by looking at the sociolinguistics of Hong Kong. The distribution of the three main languages – Cantonese, English, and Putonghua – is examined, and Cantonese-English code-mixing is discussed. The focus then turns to the notion of Hong Kong English, and its linguistic features are analysed. Then, the nature of computer-mediated communication is explored. I look at how this context has affected the use of language in general, and HKE specifically. The distinctive HKE features that can only be seen in CMC are examined. I show that Hong Kong English in computer-mediated communication (CHKE) is formally different from HKE in other written contexts.

In order to argue that CHKE is a variety of its own, I look at how various scholars define ‘variety’ and similar notions such as ‘language’, ‘dialect’, ‘sociolect’, and ‘register’. Seeing that the concept of norms is essential in determining whether a variety is ‘systematically different’, I explore the nature of social norms and linguistic norms. A model of norms is proposed, identifying three kinds of linguistic norms: formal norms, contextual norms and identity norms.

I present the results of a survey I conducted that aims to elicit Hong Kong people’s attitudes towards CHKE. Analysis of the data obtained from the survey shows that linguistic norms of CHKE have emerged. Not only is CHKE recognised by its users as a distinct variety, this variety also has an identity marking function that is not seen in other forms of written HKE.
