标题Re: 政治干涉语言 --- 台语不是中文方言
时间Sun Oct 7 01:12:40 2007
我手上也有一本书 The Power of Babel, John McWhorter 写的
是这样说的:
``We often hear that a Chinese person speaks the Mandarin `dialect' or the
Cantonese `dialect,' but in fact the eight main `dialects' of Chinese
are so vastly different that they are, under any analysis, separate languages.
The Standard German speaker can gruadually `wrap his ear around' and `get
the hang of' Schwaebisch, but the Cantonese speaker must learn Mandarin as a
foreign language.
...(一段 parallel text)
``Taiwanese often speak yet other Chinese `dialects' in addition to
Mandarin, which means the most of the Taiwanese immigrants we meet speak two
Chinese languages, not just dialect of one.''
(後面就在解释为什麽中国人会说是方言)

恕删
: 所以只是方言和语言只是不同定义的差别吧!!
我觉得定义一定要清楚吧,不然没办法好好讨论。
如果真的要把粤语闽南语都当成汉语方言,那我觉得我们可以先创造一个新名词叫作汉语
方言,接下来再来定义汉语方言是什麽,想办法把粤语和闽南语塞进去。
