Abstract:

Moving beyond two main concepts of 'interlingual' and 'intralingual'
discrimination, this Cambridge Element addresses the concept of 'translingual
discrimination', which refers to inequality based on transnational migrants'
specific linguistic and communicative repertoires that are (il)legitimized by
the national order of things. Translingual discrimination adds intensity to
transnational processes, with transnational migrants showing two main
characteristics of exclusion - 'translingual name discrimination' and its
associated elements such as 'name stigma' and 'name microaggression'; and
'translingual English discrimination' and its elements such as 'accentism',
'stereotyping' and 'hallucination'. The accumulation of these characteristics
of translingual discrimination causes negative emotionality in its victims,
including 'foreign language anxiety' and 'translingual inferiority complexes'.
Consequently, transnational migrants adopt coping strategies such as 'CV
whitening', 'renaming practices', 'purification', and 'ethnic evasion' while
searching for translingual safe spaces. The Element concludes with the social
and pedagogical implications of translingual discrimination in relation to
transnational migrants.
