World Englishes - Academic Dictionaries and …

<code>This article is about the classification of Englishes around the world. For Global English or World English, see International English.</code><code>Media</code><code>Media</code><code>International Association for World Englishes</code><code>World Englishes refers to the emergence of localised or indigenised varieties of English, especially varieties that have developed in nations colonised by Great Britain or influenced by the United States. World Englishes consist of varieties of English used in diverse sociolinguistic contexts globally, and how sociolinguistic histories, multicultural backgrounds and contexts of function influence the use of colonial English in different regions of the world.</code><code>The issue of World Englishes was first raised in 1978 to examine concepts of regional Englishes globally. Pragmatic factors such as appropriateness, comprehensibility and interpretability justified the use of English as an international and intra-national language. In 1988, at a Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) conference in Honolulu, Hawaii, the International Committee of the Study of World Englishes (ICWE) was formed.[In 1992, the ICWE formally launched the International Association for World Englishes (IAWE) at a conference of "World Englishes Today", at the University of Illinois, USA.[1]</code><code>Currently, there are approximately 75 territories where English is spoken either as a first language (L1) or as an unofficial or institutionalised second language (L2) in fields such as government, law and education. It is difficult to establish the total number of Englishes in the world, as new varieties of English are constantly being developed and discovered.[2]</code>Contents<a href="https://enacademic.com/dic.nsf/enwiki/3529675#World_English_versus_World_Englishes">1 World English versus World Englishes<a href="https://enacademic.com/dic.nsf/enwiki/3529675#Historical_context">2 Historical context<a href="https://enacademic.com/dic.nsf/enwiki/3529675#History_of_English">2.1 History of English<a href="https://enacademic.com/dic.nsf/enwiki/3529675#Global_spread_of_English">2.2 Global spread of English<a href="https://enacademic.com/dic.nsf/enwiki/3529675#Classification_of_Englishes">3 Classification of Englishes<a href="https://enacademic.com/dic.nsf/enwiki/3529675#Kachru.27s_Three_Circles_of_English">3.1 Kachru's Three Circles of English<a href="https://enacademic.com/dic.nsf/enwiki/3529675#Schneider.27s_Dynamic_Model_of_Postcolonial_Englishes">3.2 Schneider's Dynamic Model of Postcolonial Englishes<a href="https://enacademic.com/dic.nsf/enwiki/3529675#Other_Models_of_Classification">3.3 Other Models of Classification<a href="https://enacademic.com/dic.nsf/enwiki/3529675#Strevens.27s_World_Map_of_English">3.3.1 Strevens's World Map of English<a href="https://enacademic.com/dic.nsf/enwiki/3529675#McArthur.27s_Circle_of_World_English">3.3.2 McArthur's Circle of World English<a href="https://enacademic.com/dic.nsf/enwiki/3529675#G.C3.B6rlach.27s_Circle_model_of_English">3.3.3 Görlach's Circle model of English<a href="https://enacademic.com/dic.nsf/enwiki/3529675#Modiano.27s_model_of_English">3.3.4 Modiano's model of English<a href="https://enacademic.com/dic.nsf/enwiki/3529675#Variations_and_Varieties">4 Variations and Varieties<a href="https://enacademic.com/dic.nsf/enwiki/3529675#The_Future_of_World_Englishes">5 The Future of World Englishes<a href="https://enacademic.com/dic.nsf/enwiki/3529675#English_as_the_language_of_.E2.80.98others.E2.80.99">5.1 English as the language of ‘others’<a href="https://enacademic.com/dic.nsf/enwiki/3529675#The_languages_of_.E2.80.98others.E2.80.99_as_World_Languages">5.2 The languages of ‘others’ as World Languages<a href="https://enacademic.com/dic.nsf/enwiki/3529675#References">6 References<a href="https://enacademic.com/dic.nsf/enwiki/3529675#Further_reading">7 Further reading<a href="h…
