| Summary: | Translanguaging in Philippine education and other public spaces has shown that it may be used to empower multilingual speakers and promote linguistic equity. As illustrated in the chapters of this book, the power of expression using various linguistic resources is crucial in recognizing distinct linguistic and cultural identities and elevating the status of local languages. In other multicultural societies, many speakers are isolated in academic institutions and other communal spheres because their freedom to combine languages is curtailed. Drawing from the key points of these chapters, we argue that the world has to formally uphold the right of multilingual speakers to engage in translanguaging purposefully and utilize their linguistic tools fully in asserting their identities and in realizing their aspirations. |
