Abstract
This research delves into the intricate complexities of Chinese Mandarin Queer speech, aiming to establish a network of commonalities within this distinct language group. Specifically, it explores acoustic, stylistic, and lexical frameworks through the lens of Mandarin-speaking LGBTQIA+ individuals, building upon a critical analysis of prior scholarly investigations. Drawing on three experimental research studies that yielded data-driven insights into the acoustic, phonetic, and lexical markers of Queer Mandarin Speech, as well as two literature-based analyses offering contextual background, this study weaves a cohesive narrative. Through comprehensive comparison and analysis, this research identifies Queer Mandarin Speech as uniquely recognizable, characterized by distinctive linguistic features, and imbued with contextually encoded information accessible primarily to the LGBTQIA+ community. Moreover, theoretical and abstract reflections on societal implications and key influential factors shaping this linguistic community are interwoven throughout the discussion.
