大家或许听过一个中华民国的「国语」如何制定的故事。中华民国成立时，政府要选一个方言做为国语，当时北京话已经通行全国，自然成了首选。然而，因为首创革命的中山先生是广东人，所以部分人士支持以广东话为国语。双方僵持不下，只好投票决定。最后广东话输了一票，所以国民政府就采用北京话为国语。真的假的？这篇就来谈谈这段现代汉语发展的往事，一探关于制定国语的传说。

当我还小时，我常因为能够说多种语言而感到羞愧。尽管我没有明显的口音，我知道这是一种「他者」的标志。说中文是为了帮水电公司翻译紧张的电话对话，或者在没有菜单图片的餐厅点餐。讲中文是为了负责，成为一个小大人，成为我父母可以依赖的人。

딱히 특이한 억양을 구사하는 것도 아니었지만, 어릴 때에는 여러 언어를 구사할 줄 안다는 것이 부끄러웠습니다. 이미 어딘가 ‘다른’ 존재임을 증명하는 것이나 다름없기 때문입니다. 공공기관에 문의해야 하거나, 메뉴판에 따로 사진이 없는 식당에 갔을 경우에는 중국어를 사용하곤 했습니다. 그럴 때마다 저는 어른스럽고 듬직한 딸이었고 부모님도 저를 의지하시곤 했습니다.

The Society of We Are Canadians Too created Pancouver to foster greater appreciation for underrepresented artistic communities. A rising tide of understanding lifts all of us.
This project is funded in part by the Government of Canada.
We would like to acknowledge that we are gathered on the traditional and unceded territories of the Coast Salish peoples of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam Indian Band), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish Nation), and Səl̓ílwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh Nation). With this acknowledgement, we thank the Indigenous peoples who still live on and care for this land.
