摘　　要：社会语言学从不同视角对身份以及语言与身份之间的关系加以研究。言语适应理论对两者之间的关系研究较为动态,说话人通过言语趋同、言语趋异和语言维持等交际策略来构建自己新的身份或维持已有的身份,说话人身份的选择决定了其言语交际策略的选择。研究结果表明,语言和身份之间存在密切关系,语言不仅反映出说话人的身份,而且是塑造身份的重要元素;说话人身份的选择则决定了其语码的选择。Identity and the correlation between language and identity have been studied from varied perspectives in sociolinguistics. Identity, in the sense of speech accommodation theory, is dealt with in an interactively dynamic system. The speaker creates or maintains his identities through such communicative strategies as convergence, divergence and language maintenance. The speaker＇ s choice of identity determines his choice of linguistic communicative strategies. The finding is that a close correlation exists between language and identity ：the speaker＇ s speeches are not only informative of his identities but also the shaper of his identities, and that an identity, once chosen by the speaker, determines the code to be chosen.
