Abstract | In this article, we propose to discuss linguistic identities in Macao, considering some data collected from the Macao Historical Archives. The purpose of this article is to return to this discussion already rehearsed in other moments of our studies (LIMA-HERNANDES 2010, 2015, 2016; TEIXEIRA-E-SILVA & LIMA-HERNANDES 2010, 2014, 2015; LIMA-HERNANDES & TEIXEIRA-E-SILVA 2012, 2017; LIMA-HERNANDES, CARVALHINHOS & TEIXEIRA-E-SILVA 2014; TEIXEIRA-E-SILVA, LIMA-HERNANDES & ALMEIDA 2012; among others). This work is based on a more extended dimension into the concept of Macanese identities, obtained through access to new documents, together with the assumption that Macanese communities aligned over time until 1999, building a hybrid identity in their social actions. However, since then, the direction of this movement has been gradually changing to meet the new projects of life in Macau. The goal herein is to demonstrate that, despite the perceived uctuation of identities in the conversations and reports, there is a change in the conception of what Macao and its community are. We have argued that the Yin and Yang paradoxes, used by Givón (2005) to explain the movements of language change, contextually reveal a powerful tool to the understanding of movements within hybrid communities |
