Lavender linguistics : ウィキペディア英語版 | Lavender linguistics
Lavender linguistics is a term used by linguists, and advanced by William Leap, to describe the study of language as it is used by gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) speakers. It "encompass() a wide range of everyday language practices" in LGBTQ communities.〔Swann, Joan, Ana Deumert, Theresa Lillis and Rajend Mesthrie. ''A Dictionary of Sociolinguistics''. Edinburgh: Edinburgh University Press, 2004〕 The term derives from the longtime association of the color lavender with gay and lesbian communities.〔 The related terms lavender language and simply gay and lesbian language also refer to the language used by LGBTQ speakers. "Language," in this context, may refer to any aspect of spoken or written linguistic practices, including speech patterns and pronunciation, use of certain vocabulary, and, in a few cases, an elaborate alternative lexicon such as Polari. ==Emergence of the field of lavender linguistics== Early studies in the field of lavender linguistics were dominated by the concept of distinct "lavender lexicons" such as that recorded by Gershon Legman in 1941.〔Legman, G. "The Language of Homosexuality: An American Glossary", ''in'' George W. Henry, ''Sex Variants'' (New York: Paul B. Hoeber, 1941)〕 In 1995 William Leap, whose work incorporates gay and lesbian culture studies, cultural theory, and linguistics, called for scholarship to move toward a fuller and more nuanced study of gay and lesbian language use.〔Leap, William L. ''Beyond the Lavender Lexicon.'' Newark: Gordon & Breach, 1995〕 Anna Livia and Kira Hall have noted that while research in the 1960s and 1970s on the difference between men's and women's speech made the implicit assumption that gender was the relevant way to divide the social space, there is still considerable room for linguistic research based on sexual orientation, rather than gender.〔Livia, Anna and Kira Hall. ''Queerly Phrased: Language, Gender, and Sexuality.'' New York: Oxford University Press, 1997〕
