Translingual Practice: Global Englishes and Cosmopolitan Relations

By A. Suresh Canagarajah

Book Overview

Translingual Practice: Global Englishes and Cosmopolitan Relations introduces a new way of looking at the use of English within a global context. Challenging the traditional approaches in second language acquisition and English language teaching that treat the norms of native speakers as the target model for learning and emulation, this book incorporates recent advances in SLA, multilingual studies, and lingua franca English to take a new look at this area.
