Is Time Travel Possible? Accidental Signs as Sociolinguistic “Wormholes”
Sociolinguistics primarily focuses on deliberately staged public signs, while relatively less attention has been given to ephemeral and non‐deliberate signs in urban environments. This study investigates “ accidental signs,” which are hidden historical texts suddenly exposed by unpredictable events. I argue that the accidental sign can be understood as a provisional phase in a sign's biography, a state in which an earlier textual layer returns to…
“Chinese city with Russian characteristics”
Harbin is a city in Northeast China that rose to prominence as a result of the construction of the Chinese Eastern Railway in a context of Russian imperial expansion. Affectionately known as “the Moscow of the East,” Harbin’s history, architecture, food, and language bear strong Russian/Soviet influences. Given the joint Chinese and Russian/European influences, Harbin represents a dynamic, hybridized, and liminal space. Adopting the conceptual le…
Neon signs and the red-light district of Hong Kong
Neon signs have been a defining feature of Hong Kong’s urban and visual culture for decades. In Wan Chai’s red-light district, they were particularly dense and diverse. This study, drawing on online archives, field observations, and the theoretical framework of the translational city, divides the district’s evolution into three phases: American dominance in the 1960s – 1970s, characterized by Western fantasies of the Orient in this diasporic spac…
Playful signs in the city
Urban residents move through linguistic landscapes where public signage frequently produces unintended meanings through error, contradiction, or spatial interaction. While ordinary signs aim to regulate and inform, some generate irony or humor, which are termed “playful signs”. This study asks what playful signs reveal about the dynamics of language and space in the city. Drawing on online sources and off-line fieldwork, it develops an analytical…

The Persian Way? Dingzhou Eye Ointment and Its Origins
Dingzhou eye ointment gained significant popularity from the late Qing dynasty to the Republican era. Its legacy persists through three prominent families: Bai Jingyu (白敬宇), Ma Yinglong (马应龙) and Zhang Qizhu (张齐珠). Each family’s Dingzhou eye ointment is similar, with comparable ingredients, dosages, and usage methods, suggesting a common origin. While many well-established Dingzhou eye ointment brands claim their origins date back to the late Min…
Intralingual translation as performance of identity

Gender Representation in Translation
Semiotics of Disappearance
Emerging in the 1920s and peaking in the 1980s, Hong Kong’s neon signs reflected the city’s unique fusion of Chinese and Western influences. Embodying the utopian ideals of East–West convergences, neon signs are multimodal texts that encapsulate Hong Kong’s urban identity and serve as valuable artifacts for understanding the city’s cultural memory and ongoing transformation. Drawing on linguistic landscaping fieldwork, this essay analyzes neon si…

The empathetic utterance-final particle - ne in Japanese
Utterance-final particles (UFPs) in Japanese can be immediately preceded by any lexical item, and can carry various tonal contours, each conveying nuanced meanings in discourse. This paper focuses on the empathetic UFP - ne , investigating its phonological representation (rather than its morphological, syntactic, semantic, or pragmatic representation) based on its usage as established in the literature. While traditionally viewed as a consonant-v…

Young Children’s Deference to a Consensus Varies by Culture and Judgment Setting
Three- and 4-year-old Asian-American and Caucasian-American children were asked to judge which of a set of three lines was the longest, both independently and in the face of an inaccurate consensus among informants. Half of the children made their judgments privately; the other half made their judgments with the experimenter present. In the private setting, children were mostly resistant to the incorrect testimony from the consensus. By contrast,…
The linguistic landscape of Chinatowns in Canada and the United States
Chinatowns in Canada and the United States are marked by cultural hybridity, where the translation of various types, verbal and non-verbal, takes place to produce distinct urban meanings. On the basis of an ethnographic observation, this article reveals the role of translation in the signification and imagination of Chinatowns. Cultural diaspora in relation to multimodal translation is designed as a theoretical framework, under which linguistic, …
Cross-cultural Exchange of Heritage in Museums
Translation is involved in cross-cultural exchange of heritage—transplanting the cultural heritage that belongs to one particular cultural-linguistic community into a new place and for a new audience. Using the concept of cultural translation as the theoretical framework, this study explores how translation is embedded yet largely hidden when Dunhuang artefacts are digitally positioned in a Hong Kong-based museum. It lays bare the connection betw…
