Oxford Applied Linguistics: English as a Lingua Franca
by Jenkins, J Published by Oxford University PressPublished 2004.
A complete introduction to the theoretical nature and practical implications of English used as a lingua franca by non-native speakers.
The number of English speakers in the world continues to grow, but the vast majority are non-native speakers using English to communicate with each other, rather than with native speakers.
This book examines the use of English as a Lingua Franca (ELF) from various perspectives. It explores the various ways in which ELF represents a challenge to the predominance of the native-speaker model, as well as its implications for other fields of linguistic research and for English language teaching.
