Seeing The Struggle of Relationship between Chinese Mothers and America-born Daughters through Languages in Joy Luck Club

Abstract

In the social background of the increasing culture blend, immigrant Chinese mothers often have trouble balancing their relationship with America-born daughters. The film Joy Luck Club is a renowned example of looking into such conflict. This passage analyzes the four typical characteristics of mothers’ language in the film and ultimately concludes that language itself is the key cause of the misunderstanding and conflict of parentage. Noticing such logical relevance helps to continue and booster the already on-going amelioration on language.
