摘　　要：语言认同是近年来社会语言学领域的热门话题。文章以濒危的四川辰州话方言岛为例,通过问卷、半结构式访谈等方法实证调查方言岛讲话人的语言认同状况,探讨讲话人的语言认同对方言岛生命力的影响。研究结果发现,在中国城市化大背景下,辰州话讲话人对区域共同语或标准语的认同是辰州话渐趋濒危的重要因素。语言认同研究对城市化进程中的濒危语言和方言保护、普通话普及、语言规划等都有积极的意义。Language identity is a new hot topic in area of sociolinguistics in recent years.This paper reports on how language identity affects the vitality of the endangered Chenzhou dialect island.The results show that Chenzhou dialect speakers hold high level language awareness,and the language use model shifts from Chenzhou-dialect-dominated to the regional common Sichuan-dialect-dominated.It also reveals that Chenzhou dialect speakers take stronger emotional evaluation toward Chenzhou dialect,but stronger instrumental evaluation toward Sichuan dialect.These demonstrate that from the side of language speakers,the regional or standard language identity is a crucial factor which leads to the dialect endangerment.The findings thus have great implications,in the context of China Urbanization,on language endangerment/dialect protection,Putonghua promotion and China language planning as well.
