Abstract:
English in Malaysia: Current Use and Status offers an account of the English
language used in present-day West and East Malaysia and its status anchored in
different linguistic, social and educational domains. After an Introduction
giving a bird’s eye view of the status of English in Malaysia, the eight main
chapters offer case studies revolving around four themes:
i. linguistic features, with special focus on pronunciation and language
contact;
ii. language attitudes;
iii. English in on-line discourse; and
iv. English and language policies.
The chapters cover original data and topics, seeking to draw an accurate
portrait of Malaysian English, a non-native variety of postcolonial English
that is currently developing its pronunciation, grammar, lexis and distinct
identity.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Indiana University and
as such can receive donations through the eLinguistics Foundation,
which is a registered 501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal
Tax number is 45-4211155. These donations can be offset against
your federal and sometimes your state tax return (U.S. tax payers only).
For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact your financial
advisor.
Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that
they will match any gift you make to a non-profit organization.
Normally this entails your contacting your human resources department
and sending us a form that the eLinguistics Foundation fills in and
returns to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative
procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without
costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if
your company operates such a program.
Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
