Language is the carrier of culture, information, communication between peopleLink. Different language can express different information. "The Joy Luck Club"The language differences between Chinese and American cultures embodied most incisive. In the movie,Every generation because of family ties together, but also because the languageThe difference and age difference and alienated from one another. The differences of language and cultureIt is an invisible wall of emotional exchange of the two generation, two generation barrierCommunicate with people. "The Joy Luck Club" in mothers, not to sayAccurate Chinese, can't speak correct English, speak only English ChineseLanguage. When they speak in Chinese often out of BritainLanguage, when to speak in English with chinese. Their femaleIn America grow up, accept education, fluent in English, thoughTo speak Chinese, however, also has to communicate with his motherSome difficulty. The main reason lies in the conflict and contradiction, twoThere are great differences between the language of communication.Expression of emotion is the most important means of language. In "the joy luckWill ", because do not have the same cultural background between mother and daughterLanguage, so they can't communicate emotions effectively. For example: whenJiang Lindu is very proud of her daughter brought her home town of Taiyuan,The daughter that mother is in Taiwan. "Hello," Jiang Lindu cried outSaid, "I am not from Taiwan, I was born in Chinese, tooThe original." "Oh, I thought you were in Taiwan, this two word pronunciation differenceMany." Daughter explained. "Sounds different, place is notThe same!" Jiang Lindu said angrily, "where people are dreaming of them inIn China, I bet if you are Chinese, you never will ChinaErase from your mind." From here we can see that, due to the languageLanguage differences, communication between them will always exist a lot of obstacles.In the course of time, will consciously alienated mother daughter, mother saw itActive and daughter speaking, daughter indifferent attitude, make originally very proud mother was injured, the contradiction between natural will appear again. Sino USCultural differences caused by the great mother of self identityThe same, this identity is initially opposed, and the language became the antithesisCatalyst. China culture - subtle, indirect way of speaking; America culture - specifically, a direct way of speaking. Chinese used implicitly, indirect way. When they communicate with others, even without their express special, they can still be easily and clearly understand each other. In the course of the exchange, Chinese height weight of humility, but in fact they just want to cause the attention of others to also express their humility. Contrary to Chinese, Americans like to use language to express their own ideas, they want to be quick, a clear understanding of their own will, therefore, people don't need to spend time to go through gestures, facial expressions to guess the ideas of others. For example, in accordance with the Chinese cultural habits, the master must do dish to a guest, and then look forward to taste after praise, expect to hear the guest says "who said this dish to eat, this is I had the best dishes". Americans always straightforward to express their point of view. China culture, guests to the customer will be with the Lord in the house, the master to the wine to drink, not to drink it down with drink. The guest even see their love to eat vegetables, also cannot be in someone's home, end plate into his bowl call food, as the owner of the guests respect.
