有人要保护,有人却觉得它是障碍。上海的一些学者、学生和居民正在行动,保护当地方言免于消亡。路透社近日报道称,与其他80种方言一样,上海话在中央政府推广“普通话”的政策下,正处于危险的境地。“我觉得如今的年轻人对英语恐怕比对自己的家乡话还要熟悉,”33岁的徐荣曼说道,他是一家致力于推广上海话的非营利机构的负责人。 Some people want to protect, some people think it is an obstacle. Some scholars, students and residents in Shanghai are taking actions to protect local dialects from vanishing. Recently, Reuters reported that, like the other 80 dialects, Shanghainese is in danger of being promoted by the Central Government under the “Putonghua” policy. “I think today’s young people are probably more familiar with English than their native dialect,” said Xu Rongman, 33, the head of a nonprofit that specializes in promoting Shanghainese.
