CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS NOW PUBLISHED
CONFERENCES: ENGLISH IS AN ASIAN LANGUAGE
In 1996 and 1997 The Macquarie Library Pty Ltd, publishers of the
Macquarie Dictionary, co-hosted three conferences in South-East Asia. The
aim of the conferences was to -
* assess the role that English is already playing and may play in
the future in government, economics, trade and education in
South-East Asia
* analyse what impact the new Englishes of the region might have in
reflecting the culture of these language communities
* assess the requirements for an English-language dictionary for
this region.
The topics covered in relation to the English of each country were -
* History
* Pronunciation
* Lexical items
* Standardness, particularly in the areas of newspaper publishing,
book publishing and education, with comments on the relative
importance of standards derived from within the country and those
derived externally
* Business English
* English as influencing and influenced by local culture
* The literature on the subject
