隐语行话的“破解”——略论隐语行话的通用化传承

摘要

Jargon is a special folklore language phenomenon. Its main creators and users are some particular folk social groups, while the outsiders are excluded. The purpose of its creation and usage is to maintain the benefits of these groups and satisfy the need to communicate and coordinate interpersonal relations. Jargon has the features of expressing, hiding, concealing and being mysterious. To some degree, jargon is not an independent language, but reaction and variant of common national language. Jargons have gone through creation and decoding. Thinking styles under the common cultural background have made it possible for outside people to decode some individual vocabularies in a jargon. Frequent contact with the society has made jargons exposed to an open environment, thus made it＇s even more possible to be decoded.%隐语行话是一种特殊的民俗语言现象。它的创制和使用主体是某些民间社会集团或群体，外部人员一律被排斥在外；它被创制和使用的目的是维护本集团的利益、满足交流协调人际关系的需要。隐语行话具有表达、掩饰功能和隐蔽性、秘密性的特征。于某种程度上说，隐语行话不是独立的语言，是对民族共同语的一种“反动”，是民族共同语的变体。隐语行话经历从创制到“破解”的过程，共同的文化大背景影响下的思维方式使社团外的人有破译隐语行话个别词汇的可能，频繁的社会接触，使隐语行话常处于一种开放的环境中，从而使其被破解的机率增大。
