- Abstract
- This Masters paper has been the study of the language used in textformat and the word-use in Museum exhibits. I have analyzed the Region Museums in Scania, Sweden, with Museums in Rome, Italy. The view point of the paper have been to analyze language use from the staffs perspective, therefor I have interviewed persons in the staff at the selected. I have also examine the texts in the choosen exhibits Museums as a compliment to the interviews. Where I did several observations on some of the exhibits in the Museums.

Throughout this study I have worked with my thesis ”In Swedish regional museums, more emphasis is placed on the local visitor than the temporary, while the museums that are in touristoriented cities prioritize the international use of language more”.
How do they work with language? Is there a diffirence? I have found several differences in how the museums work with languges in their exhibits. In the swedish museums there is more emphasis on the local visitor as well as newcomers to the country, who are ajusting to the new culture through SFI groups. While the staff I interviewed in the museum in Rome has a differente aproach to languages in there exhibit. In Rome the turist are included through their usage of audio guides. They also have intent to use the english language in their exhibits to give the locals more opportunities to insert the language into their lives. There are many similarities between the institutions such as they think about how and why they use words and language in the exhibit texts. This to make the Museum as accessible for all its visitors as they can. (Less)
