"Vowel system or vowel systems? Sociophonetic variation in the monophthongs of
Manila Lánnang-uè (Philippine Hybrid Hokkien)" (online talk)
Abstract:
Lánnang-uè, also known as Philippine (Hybrid) Hokkien, is a contact language
employed by the Lannang community. The variety used in metropolitan Manila (
henceforth, Lánnang-uè) primarily comprises elements from Hokkien, Tagalog/
Filipino, and English. In this presentation, I will delve into the intricacies
of Lánnang-uè, investigating it as a mixed language, and examine the
linguistic and social factors that contribute to the variation within its
monophthongs. (For a full description of the talk, please see here.)

Vowel system or vowel systems? Sociophonetic variation in the monophthongs of
Manila Lánnang-uè
Prof. Wilkinson Daniel Wong Gonzales
Department of English
The Chinese University of Hong Kong
(on behalf of the team, consisting of myself and Prof. Rebecca Lurie Starr)
Abstract:
Lánnang-uè, also known as Philippine (Hybrid) Hokkien, is a contact language
employed by the Lannang community. The variety used in metropolitan Manila (
henceforth, Lánnang-uè) primarily comprises elements from Hokkien, Tagalog/
Filipino, and English. In this presentation, I will delve into the intricacies
of Lánnang-uè, investigating it as a mixed language, and examine the
linguistic and social factors that contribute to the variation within its
monophthongs.
The investigation – work done by both me and Prof. Rebecca Lurie Starr (
National University of Singapore) – revolves around understanding the extent
of convergence within the vowel systems of the three source languages—Hokkien
, Tagalog/Filipino, and English—present in Lánnang-uè. To accomplish this,
I draw upon a comprehensive dataset gathered from 34 native speakers.
Employing Pillai scores, I quantitatively evaluate the degree of merger among
the vowel systems.
Contrary to certain predictions posited by prior research on mixed languages,
the findings indicate that Lánnang-uè boasts a cohesive eight-vowel
inventory that remains distinct from its source languages. Remarkably, the
analysis reveals intriguing insights into the influence of age and gender on
vowel stability. Specifically, older women tend to employ more stable vowels
across the source languages. This intriguing discovery suggests their pivotal
role in the development of Lánnang-uè as a mixed code. However, the study
also unveils signs of change among younger women, implying potential shifts in
the code’s evolution or its endangerment, possibly due to the community’s
evolving identity.
In addition to the linguistic analysis, I will provide some sociohistorical
and language ecological context, situating the conclusions within the
framework of metropolitan Manila Lannang community. Through this holistic
approach, I shed light on the intricate relationship between language and
society, revealing the nuanced dynamics that shape the trajectory of Lánnang-
uè. The presentation not only contributes to the understanding of linguistic
variation in contact languages but also offers insights into the broader
sociocultural landscape in which these languages evolve.
