Digital Discourse: How Going Online Is Keeping Kadazan and Other Indigenous Languages Alive In Borneo
Kadazan is considered an endangered language in Sabah, Malaysia
Editor’s note: From April 14-20, 2021, Jeannet Stephen will be hosting the @AsiaLangsOnline rotating Twitter account, which explores how technology can be used to revitalize Asian languages. Read more about the campaign here.
When Jeannet Stephen was working on her graduate school thesis, she observed code-switching (the practise of alternating between two or more languages or varieties of language in conversation) within an indigenous Kadazan family in Malaysia. As a Kadazan herself, she immediately saw her own experience reflected in this “passive bilingualism,” in that she could understand the Tangaa’ or coastal Kadazan language, but she could not speak it, as was the same with many local people. While it frustrated her that she could not speak her language, it also motivated her to continue to learn and support other language communities in the state of Sabah in Borneo, Malaysia.
