Restricted

受限的

A term used by British sociologist Basil Bernstein to refer to one of two varieties (or codes) of language use, introduced as part of a general theory of the nature of social systems and social roles, the other being elaborated. Restricted code was thought to be used in relatively informal situations, stressing the speaker’s membership of a group, was very reliant on context for its meaningfulness, and lacked stylistic range.

社会学家巴兹尔·伯恩斯坦使用的术语，指语言使用的两大变体（或语码）之一，即受限语码。用于关于社会系统和社会角色的一般理论；与精制语码对立。受限语码被认为用于不太正式的场合，强调说话人与某一群体的认同，更多地依靠语境来理解其意义，缺乏风格变化等。
