Abstract

Language planning is a social governance activity that is both theoretical and practical and has an important position and role in the national development strategy. In the past five years, language planning research focusing on language topics of the “Belt and Road” is an academic focus formed by the Chinese linguistics community taking the initiative to pay attention to the major strategic needs of the country, and relatively rich research results have been achieved. Taking the application of language resources as the starting point, related research focuses more on the development of Chinese resources and the construction of foreign language resources in my country, and the exploration of minority language resources in China and the language problems they face is slightly insufficient. At present, the advancement of the construction of the core area of the “Belt and Road” has created a new language life between my country and neighboring Central Asian countries, highlighting the cross-border language phenomenon that deserves attention in the minority language life in Xinjiang’s core area. The cross-border language in the core area condenses cross-border ethnic groups, carries multiculturalism, and is a unique national resource. The construction of my country’s “One Belt and One Road”, can play a multi-dimensional society such as international communication, national identity, economic support, and security maintenance. Features. However, at present, my country does not pay enough attention to the multi-resource value of cross-border languages in Xinjiang’s core areas and lacks scientific and reasonable planning for them, which makes them unable to serve the social development and national strategy in an ideal manner. Therefore, in the context of the country’s “One Belt, One Road” initiative, in the face of the ecological development trend of cross-border languages in the core area, how to develop its resource value, enhance its social function, and make it an element of building the language capabilities of the country’s surrounding areas, etc. It has become a new topic in my country’s language planning research, and my country’s language planning practice serving the construction of the core area of the “Belt and Road” will inevitably face new situations and tasks.
