Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. First Edition. A very good copy just showing an indentation/split to the rear board, hence a non-text page is stamped damaged and so now for sale at a special bargain price. Despite such, this book is actually in very decent shape; appears unread and is a perfectly good reference copy. N° de réf. du vendeur 204741

Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. English as a global lingua franca interacts with other languages across a wide range of multilingual contexts. Combining insights from linguistics, education studies, and psychology, this book addresses the role of English within the current linguistic dynamics of globalization. It takes Singapore, Hong Kong, and Dubai as case studies to illustrate the use of English in different multilingual urban areas, arguing that these are places where competing historical assessments, and ideological conceptions of monolingualism and multilingualism, are being acted out most forcefully. It critically appraises the controversial concept of multilingual advantages, and studies multilingual cross-linguistic influence in relation to learning English in bilingual heritage contexts. It also scrutinises multilingual language policies in their impact on attitudes, identities, and investment into languages. Engaging and accessible, it is essential reading for academic researchers and advanced students of bi- and multilingualism, globalization, linguistic diversity, World Englishes, sociolinguistics, and second/third language acquisition. Incorporating research from a range of fields, this book provides an overview of how multilingual individuals use and experience English alongside their other languages. It is written for researchers and students of bi- and multilingualism, globalization, linguistic diversity, World Englishes, sociolinguistics and second/third language acquisition. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781108844024
