Using three triangulated methods, namely, questionnaire survey, matched-guise technique, and focused interview, the book adopts an innovative research methodology that combines quantitative and qualitative data from 3,493 participants. Overall, the participants still believe that the standardized Englishes are desirable models of English in China and that China English should be well codified and promoted before being adopted as the pedagogic model. In addition, the book proposes that the curriculum design of university English should include an introduction to the well-defined characteristics of China English and world Englishes. Last but not least, the book reveals that English is being used more widely and frequently in the professional world than before and has become increasingly important in China.Asia in Transition,2364-8260 ;10Language and languagesStudy and teachingLanguage acquisitionLinguisticsMethodologySociolinguisticsLanguage EducationLanguage Acquisition and DevelopmentResearch Methods in Language and LinguisticsSociolinguisticsLanguage and languagesStudy and teaching.Language acquisition.LinguisticsMethodology.Sociolinguistics.Language Education.Language Acquisition and Development.Research Methods in Language and Linguistics.Sociolinguistics.401.93He Deyuan932888MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910863289403321China English in world Englishes2147641UNINA
