中西汉字用法的文化差异研究
Studying Cultural Differences in Emoji Usage across the East and the West
摘要:
全世界都能接受英语,这表明英语是一种跨文化的、规范的用法。同时,由于表达情感的语言差异和概念化主题的多样性,不同文化间的日语使用也可能存在细微差别。事实上,跨文化心理学的文献已经发现了情感表达的规范和特定文化方式。在本文中,使用社交媒体,我们比较了基于频率,上下文和主题协会在东方国家(中国和日本)和西方国家(美国,英国和加拿大)的日语使用。在东西方,我们的研究考察了a)不同类别的“人”,“饮食”,“旅游”和“地方”等使用的异同,b)潜在的映射的使用差异与先前确定的文化差异,在用户的表达不同的概念,如死亡,金钱的情绪和家庭,和c)验证的心理语言类别与埃克曼的情绪的相对对应。对东方和西方汉字使用的分析揭示了可识别的规范和文化特定模式。本研究揭示了日语在跨文化交际中的运用方式。
英文摘要:
Global acceptance of Emojis suggests a cross-cultural, normative use of Emojis. Meanwhile, nuances in Emoji use across cultures may also exist due to linguistic differences in expressing emotions and diversity in conceptualizing topics. Indeed, literature in cross-cultural psychology has found both normative and culture-specific ways in which emotions are expressed. In this paper, using social media, we compare the Emoji usage based on frequency, context, and topic associations across countries in the East (China and Japan) and the West (United States, United Kingdom, and Canada). Across the East and the West, our study examines a) similarities and differences on the usage of different categories of Emojis such as People, Food \& Drink, Travel \& Places etc., b) potential mapping of Emoji use differences with previously identified cultural differences in users' expression about diverse concepts such as death, money emotions and family, and c) relative correspondence of validated psycho-linguistic categories with Ekman's emotions. The analysis of Emoji use in the East and the West reveals recognizable normative and culture specific patterns. This research reveals the ways in which Emojis can be used for cross-cultural communication.
