台灣日語新語之考察研究-社會現象產生之新語的借用-

此篇論文以「台灣日語新語之考察研究–社會現象產生之新語的借用–」之題目作研究探討。探討內容主在研究台灣在有類似日本之社會現象時，沿用日本所發明之新語，本論文聚焦探討「少子化」，「宅男」，「高齡化社會」，「下流老人」，「無緣社會」，「卒婚」，「孤食」共7個社會現象新語。經由12家報社，66年間的新聞內容檢索，考察得出以上新語在台灣從初次刊載至2017年底的總刊載次數，刊載年數，分類為已固定使用新語及未固定使用新語。另從初次刊載到2017年底，檢索數千數百筆的新聞內容，羅列每年2例解釋新語被台灣固定使用的模式，探得新語在台灣的使用軌跡。同時由新聞內容的動向一瞥台灣之社會脈動。社會現象所借用的新語在台灣固定被使用的模式為:日本新社會現象發生(新語產生)→轉變為社會問題→台灣也有類似社會現象發生→在台灣也成為社會問題→對策探討→新法案探討→政府單位動員動應。對於在台灣尚屬陌生，未被固定使用的新語，未來是否會成為台灣的固定使用語言，端視該社會現象的未來有無如上模式成為社會問題了。

This paper examined the Japanese neologisms borrowed by Taiwan newspapers to report on Taiwan’s social phenomenon which is similar to the social phenomenon previously taking place in Japan. In this paper, 7 neologisms related to social phenomenon were discussed, namely, sub-replacement fertility, homeboy, aging society, low-living elderly, society without connection, living apart together, and dining alone. The news contents published by 12 Taiwan newspapers in a period of 66 years were retrieved and examined to find out how many times and how many years the neologisms stated above have been used by Taiwan newspapers until 2017 year-end. The neologisms were divided into two categories – regularly used neologisms and irregularly used neologisms – and examined separately. Next, thousands of news contents published by Taiwan newspapers until 2017 year-end were retrieved to examine how Taiwan newspapers used both categories of neologisms and to trace how the neologisms were used in Taiwan. Readers could take a quick glance at Taiwan’s social pulse as they read the news contents. According to the research results, this is how the neologisms related to Taiwan’s social phenomenon were borrowed and used by Taiwan newspapers regularly: emergence of new social phenomenon in Japan (neologisms were created accordingly) → social phenomenon transformed into social issue → similar social phenomenon taking place in Taiwan → social phenomenon becoming social issue in Taiwan, too → discussing solutions → discussing bills to solve social issues → government agencies mobilized to solve the issues. Up until 2017 year-end, some neologisms have not been used regularly in Taiwan. Whether these neologisms will be used by Taiwan newspapers regularly depends on whether the social phenomenon turns into social issues.
