Kongish: Translanguaging and the Commodification of an Urban Dialect - Elements in Applied Linguistics
Lee, Tong King (University of Hong Kong)
This Element introduces Kongish as a translingual and multimodal urban dialect emerging in Hong Kong in recent years and still in the making. Through the lens of translanguaging and linguistic commodification, and using the popular Facebook page Kongish Daily as a case in point, the study outlines the semiotic profile of Kongish.
