Isi artikel

Personal letter-writing, a major literacy event in Tuvalu, is strongly influenced by the culture-specific discourse conventions at play in Tuvaluan culture. This influence is evident not only in letters written in the vernacular but also in the English letters of Tulvaluan biliterates. Their native patterns of discourse are transferred across literacies.
