Abstract

The Chinese of Malaya-Singapore were mainly from southern provinces of China. They originally used their own dialects but eventually adopted Mandarin as their common mother tongue. This paper deeply analyses the historical background and reasons of the language transfer including the influence from Western culture in Chinese communities, the interaction and integration of dialect groups, the evolution of social situations on languages, the influence from Chinese political situations, the demand of education reforms, and until the rise of Guoyu during Fourth Movement period. The finding points out that the primary development of re-integration of the Chinese community and ethnic consciousness contributed to Mandarin becoming the ethnic mother tongue eventually.
