This paper reports on my firstâhand experiences of being a âpuristâ in Hong Kong, during which time I was not allowed to use mixed code, a common discursive practice among Hongkongers in Hong Kong. I shall discuss the difficulties in using âpureâ English and âpureâ Chinese in my daily life, as well as exploring the problems I encountered when I used âpureâ English in teaching English to a small group of ESL students at a primary school in Hong Kong. I argue that mixed code is very much characteristic of everyday language use by most Hongkongers and represents an important marker of their ethnoâlinguistic identity. In relation to language teaching, I suggest that mixed code may be usefully adopted in teaching English in Hong Kong, rather than being shunned at all costs.View full textDownload full textKeywordscodeâswitching, mixed code, ethnoâlinguistics, English teaching, Hong KongRelated var addthis_config = { ui_cobrand: "Taylor & Francis Online", services_compact: "citeulike,netvibes,twitter,technorati,delicious,linkedin,facebook,stumbleupon,digg,google,more", pubid: "ra-4dff56cd6bb1830b" }; Add to shortlist Link Permalink http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/1358684X.2010.528875

机译：本文报告了我在香港成为“纯粹主义者”的第一手经验，在此期间，我被禁止使用混合代码，这是香港香港人普遍使用的话语练习。我将讨论在日常生活中使用“ pure”英语和“ pure”中文的困难，并探讨在使用“ pure”英语将英语教给英语时遇到的问题。香港一所小学的一小部分ESL学生。我认为混合代码是大多数香港人日常使用语言的主要特征，并且代表了他们民族语言身份的重要标志。关于语言教学，我建议在香港英语教学中可以采用混合代码，而不是不惜一切代价避免。查看全文下载全文关键词代码转换，混合代码，民族语言学，英语教学， Hong KongRelated var addthis_config = {ui_cobrand：“泰勒和弗朗西斯在线”，servicescompact：“ citeulike，netvibes，twitter，technorati，delicious，linkedin，facebook，stumbleupon，digg，google，更多”，发布号：“ ra-4dff56cd6bb1830b”};添加到候选列表链接永久链接http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/1358684X.2010.528875
