中高級日語學習者的中介語階段性探討—綜觀「語言情境」與「視覺聯想」的語言解析研究計畫—

A Note on Stages in Interlanguage of Intermediate-to Advanced-level Learners of Japanese―A Proposal for a Comprehensive Approach Combining Linguistic Information and Visual Images―

基於中高級日語學習者的「語言使用情境」與「所繪的插畫（視覺資訊）」等綜合語言解析方式，本研究目的在於評估中介語圖像聯想的輔助學習成效。首先，我們以村上春樹小說中的部分內容為題材，請中高級日語學習者畫出敘述小說情節的插畫。從日語學習者畫的插畫中，可以觀察到「滲透性、語言遷移、石化現象」等類似中介語的現象。本研究結果顯示，中介語體系的形成也涵蓋了圖像聯想。其次，我們也以民間故事為素材，以定量的觀點來證實中介語的普遍性，作為創新的語言現象解析途徑。本研究以日語母語者所做出的平均評價為基準，將日語學習者所繪製的插畫評價作為連續型分布數據，進行分析。就結論而言，本研究結果顯示，隨著第二語言的習得過程，能同時強化圖像聯想與語言技能，透過語言學習的各個階段，讓語言學習者逐步活用目標語言。

 

This study aims to propose a comprehensive approach that utilizes both linguistic information and illustrations (visual images) created by intermediate- to advanced-level learners of Japanese and to examine the complementary role of visual images in interlanguage. First, by using a selection of Haruki Murakami’s novels as material, we identified characteristics of interlanguage such as permeability, transitionality, and fossilization in the learners’ illustrations. We argued that visual images also form an integral part of the interlanguage system. Next, introducing a novel approach to examining the universality of interlanguage from a quantitative perspective, using a folktale as material, we analyzed the illustrations drawn by learners as continuous-type distribution data, based on the average evaluation scores of native Japanese speakers. We concluded that learners’ images evolve similarly to linguistic items and approach the target language incrementally, with each stage intermingled with common features.
