More about the book

Focusing on the evolution of postcolonial English varieties, this book examines the historical, social, and ecological factors influencing their development. It argues that despite their unique characteristics, the spread of these Englishes can be traced to a common underlying process shaped by interactions among colonizers, the colonized, and other groups. By analyzing English in sixteen countries across all continents, it offers valuable insights for sociolinguists, dialectologists, and historical linguists, presenting a comprehensive view of English's global growth and diversification.
