Quick comments 丨 Guangzhou one store prohibits working in Cantonese?Don't prevent communication without having to cut

Speaking Mandarin in the scene suitable for Mandarin, the scene is suitable for dialect scenes, random response, which is enough

Recently, a screenshot of a viewing record of a Sushi Lang Guangzhou store has caused controversy. The content shows that the store banned employees from speaking Cantonese during work, and the offenders will be strictly handled. In this regard, Guangzhou Sushilang Catering Co., Ltd. issued a statement saying that the company has never banned employees from communicating with guests in Cantonese and encouraged employees to communicate freely and comfortably according to their own conditions and communicate according to the language habits of the guests. However, in internal exchanges, because the company's employees come from different areas, in order to work smoothly, it is recommended that employees use Mandarin as the primary language. At present, we have conducted serious education on relevant personnel, and reported sincere apology for the disputes and discomfort caused by internal information transmission.

Forbidden employees to speak Cantonese? After this incident was exposed, many netizens criticized this restaurant to be too wide. The restaurant involved in response to apology as soon as possible. Simply roughly cut into force.

Indeed, in large cities like Guangzhou, there are many foreign populations in the four seas and four seas, and they will not speak nor to listen to Cantonese. Of course, the atmosphere of a Mandarin will be more friendly to them.

From the inside of the restaurant, uniform language can indeed be convenient to manage. However, we must also see that the language should be open and tolerant, and can be opened. It is necessary to facilitate communication, but also reflect the local characteristics -local language and regional culture are inseparable. This is exactly the popularity of Mandarin. Reasons for never disappear.

Cantonese itself is a dialect in Guangzhou. Many locals have ears since childhood. Compared with Mandarin, Cantonese may be their first language. Therefore, it is normal for employees to speak Cantonese in private exchanges. As some netizens said, to "follow the customs" and open stores in the local area, it is time to respect the local regional culture.

It is worth mentioning that the regulation is aimed at employees, but many local customers are locals. For them, Cantonese may be more kind. If employees need to continue to switch Cantonese and Mandarin between other employees and customers, it may not be conducive to improving service quality.

Even if you do n’t talk about “prohibiting to go to work to speak Cantonese”, it is difficult to implement this rule. It is difficult for employees to speak in private in private. For the restaurant itself cost.

Furthermore, whether to talk about the presence of a general call and strictly handle the employees. Why not the legitimate rights and interests of the workers?

Public institutions such as government departments, schools, etc. On some occasions, they may be required to speak Mandarin uniformly. However Talking about dialects, random response, which is enough.

Just like many people communicate with colleagues at work, two dialects popped out from time to time, and even a few English vocabulary popped out is normal. If it is not a necessary occasion, the language is more flexible and more lively, which is not suitable.

In recent years, some language researchers have expressed their concerns about the disappearance of dialects, of which Cantonese is the first. If in Guangzhou in the Cantonese Camp, internal communication between the company's employees is banned from using Cantonese. Similar one -size -fits -all stipulation is not necessarily a good thing for the protection and inheritance of dialects.

Therefore, the language should be open and tolerant, with the demeanor of Hainan, and the company's management can not be willful. Respect dialects, respect the wishes and legitimate rights and interests of employees, can a restaurant survive and develop more lasting.
