摘要 This research project examined the process and tension of constructing a Taiwanese identity, drawing on the theoretical framework of linguistic landscape (LL) and soundscape studies. LL studies analyse languages on signs in the public space to reveal the power dynamics of the people residing in the same spaces, while soundscape studies focus on the sounds in a particular environment and how they are perceived by individuals or groups in that sound space. This research project investigated the perception and evaluation of the multilingual public audio announcements on the Taipei Mass Rapid Transit System (MRT), where announcements are played in Mandarin Chinese, Holo, Hakka and English. The first three languages are the major languages spoken in Taipei, Taiwan. Interviews were conducted with people of diverse ethnic background (N = 100). Preliminary results mirror the power dynamic/struggle of the three linguistic groups over the past 60 years.
