The "invasion(人侵) ”of English words into the Chinese language must be stopped,the country's senior translator says.
Huang Youyi? of the International Federation of Translators,one of the country's largest publishers,says words such as OK， bye-bye? nice,modern and guitar are coming into everyday Chinese and causing problems. Mr Huang said, "If we do not pay attention and if we do not take measures to stop Chi?nese being mixed with English,Chinese will no longer be a pure language. For example, the words DV D.MP3 and CEO are used often in Chinese... But these imported terms can cause confusion.”
Mr Huang fears the increasing flow of English words into Chinese conver?sation could endanger the language. "In the long run,Chinese will lose its role as an independent language for communicating information and expressing hu?man feelings," he said.
China has struggled to integrate the flow of Western culture as it has opened up and modernized. Only 20 foreign films are allowed to be screened in cinemas each year,and a lot of websites, including YouTube,Facebook and Twitter,have been banned. But Western brands(品牌) have spread widely,English-language television shows are widely available and many students want to study English.
Mr Huang said, "Some of our people think that using foreign words is a sign of being open-minded and international. I do not think so. Instead,we should have confidence in our own language. You cannot expect others to re?spect you unless you respect yourself.”
But Gu Yueguo,of the Institute of Linguistics at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences,said,"If we cleaned out all the borrowed words,less than half of modern Chinese would be left. Borrowing words from other languages is happening all over the world. It is a positive sign of cultural exchange and as-similation(吸收) .There is no way that China can close the door.”
