Abstract:

This Element offers a comprehensive account of the unprecedented
spread of English as a global language by taking historical,
sociolinguistic, and pedagogical perspectives. To realize this
mission, it opens with an accessible discussion of the historical
trajectory of the English language with qualitative and quantitative
connections to its contemporary diversity in terms of forms, roles,
functions, uses, users, and contexts of English as a global and
multilingual franca. Built upon this synchronic-diachronic symbiosis,
the discussion is complemented by an overview of major analytical
paradigms and trends that promote systematical scrutiny of the English
language and its sociolinguistic and educational implications. It ends
by showcasing instructional practices, recommendations, reflective
questions, and future directions for language educators to revamp
their beliefs, commitments, and practices considering the changing
needs and realities of the present-day global sociolinguistic ecology
and individuals therein.
