The global spread of English has had widespread linguistic, social, and cultural
implications, affecting the lives of millions of people around the world. This
textbook provides a lively and accessible introduction to world Englishes,
describing varieties used in countries as broad-ranging as America, Jamaica,
Australia, Africa, and Asia, and setting them within their historical and social
contexts. Students are guided through the material with chapter previews and
summaries, maps, timelines, lists of key terms, discussion questions and exercises,
and a comprehensive glossary, helping them to understand, analyze, and compare
different varieties of English, and apply descriptive terminology. The book is
accompanied by a useful website, containing textual and audio examples of the
varieties introduced in the text, and links to related sources of interest. Providing
essential knowledge and skills for those embarking on the study of world
Englishes, this is set to become the leading introduction to the subject.
•
Draws on the hands-on experience of the author, who has traveled extensively to
the places discussed in this book and observed their language and culture.
•
Students are shown how theory can be applied to real-life situations.
•
The audio examples on the website are clearly explained and interpreted in the
book, showing the student which diagnostic features to pay attention to.
