"The relation between geographic and linguistic mobility among the population of French mother tongue in Ontario and Quebec [Canada] is explored. The results show that language behaviour, in particular the use of English as home language, is fairly regularly and coherently related to spatial behaviour. A distinct positive correlation between geographic and linguistic mobility is observed. It would seem, furthermore, that the ability of various linguistic environments to impose the dominant language is notably stronger when the dominant language is English." (SUMMARY IN ENG)
本文探讨了加拿大安大略省和魁北克省以法语为母语的人群中地理流动性与语言流动性之间的关系。研究结果表明,语言行为,尤其是将英语作为母语使用的情况,与空间行为存在相当规律且连贯的关联。地理流动性与语言流动性之间呈现出明显的正相关关系。此外,当主导语言为英语时,各种语言环境施加主导语言的能力似乎明显更强。 (英文摘要)
