Spatial repertoire, translingual creativity, and identity in Chinese speakers’ online intercultural experience
Year: 2023
Type: article
Abstract: 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 nonnative English speakers and spatial repertoires play agentive roles in shaping English in the trends of globalisation and digitalisation.
