Summary:
"The Routledge Handbook of Chinese Applied Linguistics is written for those wanting to acquire comprehensive knowledge of China, the diaspora, and the Sino-sphere communities through Chinese language. It examines how Chinese language is used in different contexts, and how the use of Chinese language affects culture, society, expression of self, persuasion of others; as well as how neurophysiological aspects of language disorder affects how we function, and how the advance of technology changes the way the Chinese language is used and perceived. The handbook concentrates on the cultural, societal, and communicative characteristics of the Chinese language environment. Focusing on language use in action, in context, and in vivo, this book intends to lay empirical grounds for collaboration and synergy among different fields"-- Provided by publisher.
