Abstract

The outbreak of COVID-19 in 2020 demonstrates the critical need for emergence language competence. This article first introduces the basic concepts of state governance, then discusses the definition, typology and function of emergency language competence from the perspective of state governance, and finally proposes strategies for improving state emergency language competence. State emergency language competence is part of state emergency competence, playing an important role in public emergencies. The strategies for improving state emergency language competence include the following seven areas: establishing sound institutional mechanisms for language emergency response; formulating emergency language service policies; cultivating and reserving emergency language talents; enhancing the use of new technologies in emergency language services; establishing a state emergency language resource database; strengthening emergency information dissemination and discourse management;  and enhancing the study of emergency language competence.
