Immigrant Englishes Around the World is a collection that explores the varieties of English that emerge when speakers whose native languages are not English immigrate to an English-speaking country. The book examines the commonalities and diversity of immigrant varieties of English that may be seen from a comparison of groups with different heritage languages in different English-speaking nations around the world.
Written by established researchers who all have conducted work with communities of immigrants or their descendants, the chapters explore immigrant Englishes across Great Britain, Australia, South Africa, and North America. Covering the theoretical grounding that unifies immigrant Englishes across the globe and using a model that is designed specifically for immigrant groups, the book focusses on how the communities as a whole develop their own distinctive ways of speaking English.
This comprehensive comparison of immigrant dialects across the English-speaking world is essential reading for advanced students and researchers of sociolinguistics, language and migration, and language variation.
