Spatial Repertoire, Translingual Creativity, and Identity in Chinese Speakers' Online Intercultural Experience
Language and Intercultural Communication, v24 n1 p35-51 2024
This paper uncovers L1 Chinese speakers' online intercultural communication where they deploy English as a lingua franca and other spatial repertoires to co-construct translanguaging practices with their interlocutors and present three-fold identities--translingual, L1 Chinese, and legitimate users of English, leading to the argument that non-native English speakers and spatial repertoires play agentive roles in shaping English in the trends of globalisation and digitalisation.
