    Vietnamese Female Spouses' Language Use Patterns in Self Initiated Admonishment Sequences in Bilingual Taiwanese Families* L

    Novitas-ROYAL (Research on Youth and Language), 2014, 8(1), 77-96. VIETNAMESE FEMALE SPOUSES’ LANGUAGE USE PATTERNS IN SELF INITIATED ADMONISHMENT SEQUENCES IN BILINGUAL TAIWANESE FAMILIES* Li-Fen WANG1 Abstract: This paper aims to identify how Taiwanese and Mandarin (the two dominant languages in Taiwan) are used as interactional resources by Vietnamese female spouses in bilingual Taiwanese families. Three Vietnamese-Taiwanese transnational families (a total of seventeen people) participated in the research, and mealtime talks among the Vietnamese wives and their Taiwanese family members were audio-/video-recorded. Conversation analysis (CA) was adopted to analyse the seven hours of data collected. It was found that the Vietnamese participants orient to Taiwanese and Mandarin as salient resources in admonishment sequences. Specifically, it was identified that the two languages serve as contextualisation cues and framing devices in the Vietnamese participants’ self-initiated admonishment sequences. Keywords: Conversation analysis, cross-border marriage, intercultural communication Özet: Bu çalışma, Tayvanca ve Çince’nin (Tayvan’daki yaygın iki dil) iki dil konuşan Tayvanlı ailelerdeki Vietnamlı kadın eşler tarafından etkileşimsel kaynak olarak nasıl kullanıldığını göstermeyi amaçlamaktadır.

    The 18th International Planning History Society Conference - Yokohama, July 2018 Historical Analysis of Urban Public Transportation Development in Modern Tianjin (1902-1949) Yili Zhao*, Lin Feng**, Yanchen Sun***, Kun Song*** * PhD, Tianjin University, [email protected] ** Lecture, Tianjin University, [email protected] *** PhD, Tianjin University, [email protected] **** Professor, Tianjin University, [email protected] Tianjin was the earliest city opening urban public transport lines in China. Urban public transportation had profound impacts on urban construction and on the formation of urban structure in Tianjin from 1902 to 1949. Based on the background of urban development, this paper firstly divides the evolution process of public transportation represented by tramways and buses into three periods from the perspectives of the distribution, quantity and operation status of public transportation lines. It then analyses the strong influence of public transportation on urban roads construction from the view of the increased municipal income, road widening, improvement of pavement quality, and bridges construction and maintenance. Finally, by using qualitative and quantitative analysis and superposing the related statistical data with the historical map, it analyses the relationship among public transportation line density, land value partition and basic urban structure, and certifies they were highly relative. In conclusion, the paper argues that Tianjin urban public transport network was based on trams and supplemented by buses, and not only planning ideas but also advanced municipal technologies from the West like public transportation system were also indispensable supports in the process of urban modernization in Chinese modern treaty ports. Key words: Urban Public Transportation, Modern Tianjin, Tram, Roads Construction, Urban Structure Introduction The transformation of Chinese modern treaty ports was closely related to western planning ideas of the time.
