研究成果概要
In the present research, the researcher applied only ethnography as a methodology to explore young adults’ translingual practices in online English as a lingua franca (ELF) communication. To do so, the researcher conducted an extensive period of online observation of Instagram, questionnaire surveys, and semi-structured interviews. The ongoing analysis illustrates the translingual capacity of the Japanese participants, who express themselves in front of their transnational friends. Their translingual resources become a vehicle through which the young adults expand and identify their potential audience and align identities with them.The analysis of creative translingual practices in the online ELF communication was presented in the following; Sociolinguistics Symposium 24 in Belgium in July 2022; the International Conference of English as Lingua Franca in Taiwan in November 2022; JACET (Japan Association of College English Teachers) ELF SIG International Workshop in December 2022; JASEC (Japanese Association for Studies in English Communication) Kansai Forum in January 2023; LINGUAPAX ASIA 2023, 11th International Symposium, International Christian University, Tokyo. My contribution to JASEC Bulletin Volume 30 was also published.
