ABSTRACT

This paper explores the application of frame theory to the study of language attitudes in sociolinguistics, seeking alternative perspectives and interpretive methods for language attitude research and discussing their meanings and implications. This work moves slightly away from the focus of traditional language attitude research, which primarily emphasized attitudes towards language itself or the social factors influencing language attitudes. Instead, it views language attitudes as attitudes towards the individuals or communities who use the language. It primarily focuses on language attitudes reflected in language policies of certain regions in China and South Korea from the perspective of a Frame. The application of Frame Theory in these discussions broadens the horizons of language attitude research, suggests various research methods and directions, highlights the importance of a shift in mindset, and allows for the exploration of the underlying mechanisms of language attitudes, facilitating more effective research.
