Drawing on a diversity of materials and contexts, including farewell addresses to British workers in colonial India, letters written from parents to their children at home, a Cornish anthem sung in South Australia, a country fair in rural Australia, and a cricket match played in the middle of the 19th century in south India, this book explores many current concerns around language, mobility and place, including native speakers, generic forms, and language maintenance. Using a series of narrative accounts – from a journey to southern India to eating cheese in China, from playing soccer in Germany to observing a student teacher in Sydney – this book asks how it is that language, people and cultures turn up unexpectedly and how our lines of expectation are formed.Critical language and literacy studies ;15.Language and languagesVariationIntercultural communicationCommunication, InternationalNative language and educationcolonial India.language and mobility.language education.language hybridity.language learning.literacy studies.native speaker.personal narratives .sociolinguistics.travel, mobility and locality .unexpected places.Language and languagesVariation.Intercultural communication.Communication, International.Native language and education.417/.7HE 150rvkPennycook Alastair1957-626945MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910779376303321Language and mobility3845836UNINA
