ABSTRACT

Transpositioning, a groundbreaking concept, offers a fresh perspective on language practices by seamlessly intertwining transcultural communication with the complex tapestry of identity formation. It accentuates the individual's dynamic linguistic engagement across diverse language landscapes and illuminates the intricate interplay between language, culture, society, and personal identity. In the realm of Transpositioning, language transcends mere translation; it metamorphoses and repositions itself to craft entirely new linguistic and identity narratives. This innovative approach advocates for individuals to skillfully traverse the multifarious linguistic terrains, thereby enriching their multidimensional, ever-evolving identities.
