摘要

本文以台灣人與日本人的接觸交流為例，探討因雙方面子概念的不同而造成溝通形式之差異進行分析研究，藉以増進台灣日本語教育中學習異國文化理解之目的。首先，對中國人與日本人的面子概念做探討。其次，針對面子的概念在台灣人與日本人接觸時如何顯現在溝通行為上，以7個事例進行分析。為保持客觀性，受訪者以「事例的當事人」的身分為前提接受採訪。由其結果得知，在全部的事例中，台灣人對面子的意識皆比日本人來得強，而所意識到的層面也大異其趣。最後從調査中彙整出台灣人與日本人的溝通方式的8點不同點。中日雖共用使同漢宇，但對日本人而言，「面子」是為外來語，從中國引入時對其詮釋就已偏離原義。因此雙方對面子的概念亦有所不同。在台日間人員接觸之場合，行異國文化理解之時，對「面子」之理解亦是不可或缺。
