This article combines the study of online narratives as social practices and the linguistic anthropological study of imagined communities, to examine a set of non-canonical narrative practices in a Facebook group for the Portuguese diaspora in France. Instead of reports of individual members’ past experiences, these narratives function as invitations to other group members to co-tell typical , shared experiences. Specifically, we investigate how group members share vacation trips to Portugal with each other in ways that produce a sense of collective and simultaneous experience. They accomplish this through deictically-based narrative strategies that shift the social, spatial, and temporal perspectives of narrating and narrated frames in ways that link the following: individual I’s with collective we’s , one-time events with timeless event types, and co-presence online with co-presence on vacation. Through these strategies, participants connect Facebook narrations of vacations to the larger social project of diasporic longing for and return to Portugal.

“我们要去我们的葡萄牙故乡！”

本文将在线叙事作为社会实践的研究与想象社区的语言人类学研究相结合，以检查 Facebook 群组中为旅居法国的葡萄牙侨民提供的一组非规范叙事实践。这些叙述不是对个别成员过去经历的报告，而是作为邀请其他组成员共同讲述典型的、共享的经历的方式。具体来说，我们调查了团体成员如何以产生集体和同时体验感的方式相互分享葡萄牙的假期旅行。他们通过基于指示的叙事策略来实现这一目标，这些策略以将以下方式联系起来的方式改变叙述和叙述框架的社会、空间和时间视角：个人我与集体我们，一次性事件与永恒事件类型，和在线共存与假期共存。通过这些策略，参与者将 Facebook 的假期叙述与海外侨民渴望并返回葡萄牙的更大社会项目联系起来。
