Abstract:

Quotative marking in modern English is a highly dynamic domain which has been
undergoing progressive expansion, with newcomer variants, notably quotative be
like, entering the scene and restructuring the entire system. Given that this
feature is being put foward by the younger generation in native-speaker
communities, the crucial question is, How do younger speakers living in
different parts of the non-Anglophone world appropriate this feature in their
L2 English?

This volume tackles this question by exploring the sociolinguistic mechanisms
guiding the adoption of the newcomer be like by young adults speaking English
as a second and as a foreign language. In so doing, it also explores the role
of sociolinguistic salience and language attitudes in the process of
adaptation of global linguistic innovations.
