Abstract:

This volume provides a first systematic, comprehensive account of English in 
Southeast Asia (SEA) based on current research by leading scholars in the 
field. The volume first provides a systematic account of the linguistic features 
across all sub-varieties found within each country. It also has a section 
dedicated to the historical context and language planning policies to provide a 
background to understanding the development of the linguistic features covered 
in Part I and, finally, the vibrancy of the sociolinguistic and pragmatic realities 
that govern actual language in use in a wide variety of domains such as the law, 
education, popular culture, electronic media and actual pragmatic encounters 
are also given due coverage. This volume also includes an extensive 
bibliography of works on English in SEA, thus providing a useful and valuable 
resource for language researchers, linguists, classroom educators, policy 
makers and anyone interested in the topic of English in SEA or World Englishes 
as a whole.
