Newspaper articles from Singapore and Hong Kong that reported on this special incident make up the text corpus used in this thesis. Statistics in this thesis has shown that abbreviated expressions and rhetoric devices are widely and frequently used as a style in newspaper language to enhance the effect of the relay of information from the news to the readers. Through comparing the newspaper language of Singapore and that of Hong Kong, we categorized the differences in the usage of the Chinese language in newspaper reports between these two countries. In terms of vocabulary, regional words and new words that originated from Hong Kong Chinese have been found in Singapore’s Chinese newspapers. In terms of the style of writing, Hong Kong newspapers use more literary words as well as colloquial expressions than that of Singapore. Therefore, the thesis aims to provide readers with a platform to better understand the language of journalism of Singapore and Hong Kong through the findings as displayed in this case |
