| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立中央大學 === 客家研究碩士在職專班 === 100 === Due to the specialty of Taiwan’s history, interpretation always plays an important role, such as an original colonial tool,as a commercial appeal of Capitalism, and the instrument for minority groupsto strive for linguistic human rights.“The Hakka Basic Law”, which was issued in 2010, legislating Hakka language needs to be implemented into 69 prioritized developing areas. The interpretations of Mandarin and Hakkanese have attracted people’s attention since it aimed to protect the linguistic human rights of Hakkaese groups.
The interpretations of Mandarin and Hakkanese needs to be implemented beforehand. In addition, the ways to manifest the spirits of “The Hakka Basic Law” are to install fixed interpreting devices in the 69 prioritized developing areas, and to train people to be qualified interpreters.
“The Association of Interpreting Hakka Language in Hsinchu County” was established on the Youth Day (March 29th) in 2009. It was the first and the only non-government group that focus on training and pushing the system of the interpretations of Mandarin and Hakkanese. Back in 1889, when Dr. Mackey got to Longtan, Christianity pushed religious interpretation in Hakka language. It seems like we are witnessing a development history of the whole interpretation in the Hakka County in Taiwan, from consecutive interpreting,simultaneous interpreting, to whispered interpreting. Moreover, this thesis contained the observed results of several examples, such as the second nation-wide Hakka conference, the seminar of the National Hakka Day, the debating of presidential candidates. I believe to position Hakka language as a high-level language instead of only a dialect is the only way to make it known to the public, which is the only chance for it to be preserved.
Previously, the national civil service exams have never had oral test in Hakkanese, and there is no Hakka user-friendly environment yet even in those 69 prioritized developing areas. The only thing we can do is to accomplish the main purpose of the basic law gradually at this point in time.
