Why are certain forms of language termed elegant, eloquent or refined, whereas others are deemed uneducated, coarse, or inappropriate? Making Sense of "Bad English" is an accessible introduction to attitudes and ideologies towards the use of English in different settings around the world. Outlining how perceptions about what constitutes "good" and "bad" English have been shaped, this book shows how these principles are based on social factors rather than linguistic issues and highlights some of the real-life consequences of these attitudes. Features include: an overview of attitudes towards English and how they came about, as well as real-life consequences and benefits of using "bad" English; explicit links between different English language systems, including child's English, English as a Lingua Franca, African American English, Singlish and New Delhi English; examples taken from classic names in the field, including Labov, Trudgill, Baugh and Lambert, as well as rising stars and more recent cutting-edge research; links to relevant social parallels, including known elements of cultural outputs such as holiday myths, to help readers engage in a new way with the notion of Standard English; supporting online material for students which features worksheets, links to audio and news files, sample answers to discussion questions and further background on key issues from the book. Making Sense of "Bad English" provides an engaging and thought-provoking overview of this topic and is essential reading for any student studying sociolinguistics within a global setting"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aEnglish language$xSocial aspects 615 0$aEnglish language$xSocial aspects. 676 $a306.44 686 $aLAN009050$2bisacsh 700 $aPeterson$b Elizabeth$c(Professor of linguistics),$0967687 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910372750703321 996 $aMaking sense of "bad English"$92197287 997 $aUNINA
