Book excerpt: Excerpt from Beach-La-Mar: The Jargon or Trade Speech of the Western Pacific Jargon is the speech of necessity. It is like its mother in that it knows not the law by which it is rigidly governed. A jargon is a speech of chips and fragments seized wherever found and used to such end as may be accomplished by brute force of sheer insistence. Because its origin lies in the need of simple men for the communication of a selection of their most simple ideas a jargon is rude, it is vivid, it is picturesque. Not only does it avail to show us to what lowest terms a superior speech may be reduced and yet serve as language, but it affords us a valuable insight into the machinery and method of the language of the more primal type which stands as the party of the second part in every such speech. For each jargon has grown into being as the speech of the marches, the language of the borderland. By this we do not mean the bilingual zone which exists along political boundary lines where empires of two speech families come together and evade the sentry and the customs officer in a friendly smuggling. Where a jargon arises and attains currency there must be a marked distinction in the cultural and in the intellectual planes of the two languages which march together. This speech osmosis is most active in the case where the relatively inferior man of the superior speech and culture is brought in small numbers into contact with larger masses of folk of the lower development but of more consistent average attainment to the maximum of that development. In other words, we are to note that the savage maintains much the higher average; no member of such a community falls so far short as to be regarded as ignorant by his fellows. Under usual social conditions this contrast of two cultures out of which jargon tends most readily to come into being is most commonly attained by the contact of our sailors with the savage or imperfectly civilized communities. In such cases it is well to bear in mind the classic of the scrivener - it is the party of the first part who doth grant, assign and convey; it is the party of the second part who most doth have and hold. Our sailor party of the first part is of the unlettered class, he has no illusions about the niceties of language, his speech is not nice at all.

Download or read book Languages and Their Status written by Timothy Shopen and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 1987-01-29 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An introduction both to languages themselves and to their social role, Languages and Their Status gives insight into the meaning, value, and function of language within culture and into the ways language behavior varies and changes. It examines the part languages play in the evolution and structure of communities and, in turn, the ways languages are shaped by the social forces impinging on their speakers. Each chapter discusses what it means to be a speaker of a particular language and puts that language in context among the languages of the world. This volume is complemented by a second volume entitled Languages and Their Speakers, also available from the University of Pennsylvania Press.
