■ Profile
|
In the field of Sociolinguistics, I have been researching on Bilingual Education and Multilingualism in Japan; the process of how an individual person acquires plural languages and cultures, and the relations between those multilingual individuals and society. Specifically, under the theme of multicultural 'Kyosei(co-existence)', I had conducted extensive and longitudinal fieldwork in Shinjuku ward in Tokyo and from 2012 I started to investigate on an endangered language of Japan, Miyakoan (Myakufutsu) in Miyako city of Okinawa prefecture and I am interested in the language revitalization of Myakufutsu. In the discipline of sociolinguistics, I will compare these central (Shinjuku ward in Tokyo) and peripheral (Miyakojima city in Okinawa prefecture) language variations in Japan.
