近现代散居地区仡佬族的双语现象研究

仡佬族是一个居住比较分散的民族,与汉、彝、苗、布依、壮等民族形成交错杂处的局面。历史上仡佬族曾是我国南方一个人口众多,分布较广的民族,有本民族共同语言,但由于历史原因,现只有分布在贵州中西部以及黔、滇、桂毗邻地区的散居仡佬族仍有少量保存母语,其余均已转用汉语。本文对近现代散居地区仡佬族的母语使用状况及其双语制和双语类型进行了分析和探讨。

A Study on the Biligualism among the Scattering Gelao

Gelao is a minority group living scattered among the Hans, the Yis, the Miaos, the Douyese and the Zhuangs in Southwestern China. In the ancient times, Gelao was once ethnic group with large population, and had their own native language. Because of some historical reasons, their language is now only spoken by a small number of Gelao people in the western part of Guizhou and the adjoined areas of Guizhou, Yunnan and Guangxi provinces. Nost of them have already adopted the Han Chinese language. By using plenty of first-hand materials colleed from the fieldwork, the present writer tends to probe into and analyze the use of the Gelao native language, the bilingualism and the shift of bilingual types among the Gelao people who still use their native tongue.
