THE STUDY TO FIND OUT THE CONNECTION BETWEEN LANGUAGE, CULTURE AND IDENTITY IN THE CONTEXT OF CHINESE TRANSNATIONAL ADOLESCENTS, HIGHLIGHTING ITS IMPLICATIONS FOR LANGUAGE TEACHING AND POLICY.

Abstract

The implications of language instruction on the interactions between language and Chinese transnational adolescents were investigated in this study. The research aimed to examine the impact of multilingual encounters on educational practices and personal development, considering the interconnectedness of language, culture, and identity in a globalised context. A quantitative technique was used to ascertain the links regarding cultural origins, use of languages, and perceptions of language acquisition across those surveyed, using surveys analysed by SPSS. A random sample of 758 transnational adolescents from China was used. The academics utilised a structured questionnaire including demographic enquiries and Likert-scale items to collect data. Descriptive statistics were used to summarise the data, and inferential methods including analysis of variance and correlation measures were used to determine how important the connections were. The findings indicated a significant link between individuals' perceptions of language training and their genuine linguistic behaviours. The results specifically highlighted how adolescents' transnational relationships shaped their linguistic identities, thereby influencing their language learning and cultural integration. The study emphasised the need of instructing languages in a manner that was both flexible and attuned to students' cultural and linguistic backgrounds and identities. The research suggested that education techniques including people' native languages and cultural backgrounds could strengthen their academic performance and global competence. legislators and educators might use the examination's profound results to formulate more fair and effective language learning initiatives by grasping the intricate relationship among language, identity, and education in transnational settings.
