Unanue Latino Institute at Seton Hall University held a virtual event with guest speaker Dr. Amelia Tseng to discuss the role of linguistics in identity, culture, and society.<\/p>\n<p>Tseng stressed on the significance of language in the lives of individuals and societies several times during the event. She argued that language shapes our identity because \u201c[it] is part of how we think of ourselves and others and how we build the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat you speak is who you are,\u201d Tseng mentioned, \u201cwhich is a kind of double-edge sword.\u201d Since it is common for families to have different linguistic repertoires across generations, some people feel a sense of inferiority for not knowing the language of their heritage.<\/p>\n<p>Tseng pushed back against this phenomenon, stating that, often, it is not the person\u2019s fault for not knowing their heritage language. \u201cLet\u2019s understand personal history and social context\u201d and \u201ccelebrate those strengths that are important for people to maintain culture.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>During an interview with <em>The Diplomatic Envoy<\/em>, Tseng made several important connections between linguistics and international relations. More generally, Tseng noted that \u201cwhen you have different languages and cultures, you have potential for misunderstandings in that cross-cultural communication.\u201d Some examples include how there are different politeness norms and how multilingualism is part of outreach.<\/p>\n<p>Tseng encouraged Seton Hall students to learn a new language. \u201cIt opens doors to see a culture in a different way, and it is a sign of respect.\u201d She emphasized how this applies to diplomacy students, explaining that \u201ca diplomat doing everything in one language is missing out on a lot of possibilities. To be a diplomat, you should know how to speak another language but also to have a broader intercultural understanding.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Tseng called to attention power dynamics in linguistics that she believes should be talked about more. When thinking about how countries are establishing their relationships, Tseng pointed out that \u201cthese conversations are mostly taking place in colonial languages.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The role that multilingualism plays in healthcare, education, and other areas forms a basis for Tseng\u2019s argument that \u201clanguage policy is how people institutionalize power.\u201d She explained that the implications of language in relation to power intersect with refugee and migration questions as well as have a symbolic value in immigration and nationalism. Tseng asserted that the most pressing linguistic issue in the United States is language discrimination. \u201cEnglish is a sign of American identity\u2012a particular kind of white American identity.\u201d In addition, she believes that what makes language discrimination a problem is that \u201cit is invisible.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLanguage is an acceptable proxy for racial discrimination. With language, it is easier to bring up excuses, making it harder to call out than racism,\u201d Tseng stated. Citing multiple cases of Spanish accent discrimination and prejudice toward African-American Vernacular English, Tseng argues that \u201clanguage discrimination is part of the discrimination we see in our country.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This discrimination has an impact in places like hiring communities, courts, and schools.<\/p>\n<p>Tseng called for more support in bilingual education. She believes that this support is critical for equity and educational outcomes because \u201ckids taught in languages they cannot speak will not do well in school.\u201d Additionally, if students are unable to obtain educational support in their home language, they may not be able to learn other things. Another reason for more bilingual education is practicality, for example working in an international setting. According to Tseng, \u201ca lot of languages we need are not talked about in schools.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On a more fundamental level, Tseng stated, \u201clanguage rights are human rights. While it is such an important part of people\u2019s lives, it is not always part of the curriculum.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Tseng expressed optimism for President Biden\u2019s education secretary appointment, Miguel Cardona, who is both an educator and has a master\u2019s degree in bilingual education.<\/p>\n<p>One recommendation Tseng has for students of international relations in enhancing and better understanding socio-cultural cooperation is to include language in broader conversations. This means having a \u201csocio-linguistic perspective where we see language as part of a society and the history of how it is positioned. It [also] means having [a] background [understanding] in how language intersects with power, identity, and history.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cLanguage is like water for fish or air for humans; we can&#8217;t live without it and it&#8217;s everywhere,\u201d states Dr. Amelia Tseng, an award-winning linguist, professor of world languages and culture at American University, and researcher at the Smithsonian Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5105,"featured_media":10312,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_container_layout":"default_layout","colormag_page_sidebar_layout":"default_layout","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[546,2107,2104,384,389],"tags":[758,900,928,2139],"class_list":["post-10331","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-campus-spotlight","category-february-2021","category-2104","category-americas","category-diplo-news","tag-migration","tag-human-rights","tag-nationalism","tag-language"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
