Chapter 1 Introduction
According to Hu Zhuanglin, “we can all note that language plays a central role in our lives as individuals and the social beings.”(2001) While in Hailiday’s opinion, languages “functions both as expression of and as metaphor for social progress that lies behind the dynamics of the relation of language and social context (1964). As virants of languages, dialects should have been attached with equal importance, if not more. However, dialect is such a common part of our life and humanity that too much about it has been taken for granted. If we are not fully aware of the nature and the function of our dialect, we may be ignorant of the constitute of our essential humanity. On the contrary, a better study on it will facilitate our life in all aspects. The need to accept a wide range of speech behaviors rather than to change people’s habit is the key tone of this study. In stead of discriminating dialects, it is suggested that we’d better take advantage of dialect and its social value to facilitate our human in the aspects of economy, culture, politics etc. However, our society is by no means composed of a dialect. Many western linguists insist that Chinese is a family of languages rather than a single language. It is estimated that there are more than 80 regional dialects in china now. However, many, if not most, are phased out in the long river of history. But it is the case with Chaoshan dialect, which has been outstood all the historical tests.
