Abstract: | 英語作為通用語言(ELF)是國際溝通的主要媒介,其中非母語使用者的數量大幅超越母語使用者,非母語使用者的一大特色便是口音;然而,對於口譯員來說,口音卻會影響口譯表現。再者,會議準備幾經證明有效提升口譯表現,不過會議準備階段融入口音準備之成效仍然有待探討。本研究採用量性和質性研究方法,以實驗、訪談和觀察探索口音準備之影響。受試者為十二名口譯學生分為兩組,第一組行針對越南口音以音檔進行準備,第二組則是針對泰國口音進行準備,接著兩組受試者針對兩種口音之講者進行英進中同步口譯。量性分析結果顯示口音準備對於口譯表現並無顯著效果,然而,質性分析結果顯示口音準備對於口譯表現有所提升,其中又以主動準備之成效更勝被動準備方式,量性和質性結果之相左也許能夠歸結於準備過程之三大因素:時間、範圍和主題。研究結果期能以會議準備視角瞭解口音和口譯表現之關係,擴大會議準備之。 English as a lingua franca (ELF) is the main means for international communication, and the number of non-native speakers far exceeds that of native speakers. One of the main characteristics of non-native speakers is their accents. However, for interpreters, accents can deteriorate their performance. In addition, conference preparation has been proven to be effective in improving interpreter performance, but the effectiveness of incorporating accent preparation into the conference preparation stage remains to be explored. This study adopted quantitative and qualitative research methods to explore the impact of accent preparation through experiments, interviews, and observations. The participants were twelve trainee interpreters and were divided into two groups. The first group first prepared for the Vietnamese accent using audio files, while the second group prepared for the Thai accent. Then, the two groups of participants performed simultaneous interpreting from English to Chinese for speakers with the two accents. The quantitative analysis results indicate that accent preparation did not significantly impact interpreting performance. However, qualitative analysis results suggest an improvement in interpreting performance with accent preparation, with active preparation showing superior effectiveness compare to passive preparation. The discrepancy between quantitative and qualitative findings may be attributed to three factors in the preparation process: time, scope, and topic. The results help understand the relationship between accents and interpreter performance from the perspective of conference preparation and expand the scope of conference preparation. |
