  • Multilingual Practices and Identity Negotiation Among Multilingual Heritage Language Learners in New Zealand
    Multilingual Practices and Identity Negotiation among Multilingual Heritage Language Learners in New Zealand By Mohammed Yousef Nofal A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Linguistics Victoria University of Wellington 2020 To Hanadi who will remember the time and place if not the people, Sara, Sireen, Mahamoud, and Salma who filled my life with joy, euphoria and love 2 Abstract While heritage languages (HLs) have been receiving much research attention, there is still a scarcity of studies conducted on local HL communities. However, researchers in New Zealand have been actively engaged with various community languages for over four decades, providing rich insights into the dynamics of language maintenance and language shift within these communities. Although New Zealand sociolinguistic scholarship has covered a wide range of languages and ethnicities, there is no known study on the Indian Hindi community, whose HL is the fourth most spoken language in the country (Statistics New Zealand, 2013). Additionally, previous research has traditionally examined the functional aspects of language use and language attitudes in determining whether language can be preserved, viewing HL communities often as homogeneously formed. In contrast, current trends in the field of sociolinguistics aim to examine the connections between individuals and their languages (i.e. identity), taking multilingualism as a norm and focusing on dynamism in intraspeaker and interspeaker language use. This thesis addresses these issues by exploring how the realities that heritage language learners (HLLs) live connect to identity negotiation and development in social interaction. In particular, this thesis focuses on a group of learners of Hindi as a heritage language in New Zealand – a group that is under-explored.

He worked in his uncle Goberdhan’s bakery business as a child from as early as he can remember. He had no opportunity to go to school. He had to find work instead.

Nicolas Blarel ver the last decade, many scholars and analysts have tried to assess India’s emergence Oas a major actor in the global arena by looking at such material indicators as economic growth, military expansion or demographic evolution. As a consequence, these accounts have mainly overlooked New Delhi’s increased emphasis on developing its ‘soft power’ credentials by using the attractiveness of Indian culture, values and policies. Indian diplomats like Sashi Tharoor have recently argued that if India is now perceived as a superpower, it was not just through trade and politics but also through its ability to share its culture with the world through food, music, technology and Bollywood.

    Survival of Hindi in the Caribbean, the Guyana Experience Varshnie Udho Singh Bhai owr Behano Namaste! Mera naam Varshnie Udho Singh hai. I am the Organizing Sec- retary of the Guyana Hindi Prachar Sabha (GHPS). I bring you greetings from your Bhai owr Behano in Guyana, who are devoted Hindi Premi. It is a great honour for me to be in Mauritius and address this esteemed gathering of Hindi lovers and I am eternally grateful to the Government of India & Mauritius and the World Hindi Secretariat; Gulshanji and his dedicated team for creating this opportunity for us to connect as the foot soldiers of Hindi. I must mention having attended many conferences of Hindi, this has been my favorite, it is very well organized and what is so great is the amount of young people who are active, no easy feat I can tell you, this is again testimony to Gul- shanji and his team. This year marked 176 years since the first Indian immigrants arrived on the shores of Guya- na. To clear up any confusion, Guyana is the gateway to South America and the Caribbean, located between my neighbours Suriname, Venezuela and above Brazil. That 2 out of the 9 conferences have been held in our region of South America and the Caribbean, we hope conveys the interest and enthusiasm our brothers and sisters have for this essential part of our heritage. In Guyana our forefathers came to the Caribbean with barely 3 things, their religions, lan- guages and cultures; Hindi, Sanatan Dharam and love for family. It was a very strong foun- dation that saw them through the hard days of slavery at the hands of their colonial masters.
