The book's ecological perspective offers a fresh theoretical framework for analysing both outer- and inner-circle Englishes. It investigates the varieties of English spoken as a second language, by bi- or multilingual speakers in South Africa, India, Singapore, Hong Kong and the Philippines, and by some lesser-known oceanic varieties in Micronesia and Polynesia, revealing the remarkable divergences in the use of common English elements across geographical distances. Tapping into current debates about colonial legacies and decolonization, as well as ongoing concerns about democracy, regional power and globalisation, this book explores a range of fresh evidence to discuss language variation across the globe.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 234mmItem Length: 156mmContributor: Pam Peters (Edited by), Kate Burridge (Edited by)Author: Pam Peters, Kate BurridgeGenre: Language & ReferenceISBN-10: 1474462855Type: LinguisticsRelease Year: 2021 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
