Multiscriptal English in Transliterated Linguistic Landscapes

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This Element theorizes multiscriptal English, a trend where English adopts local scripts in multilingual and (post)colonial societies. English blends into local languages through transliteration, gaining new forms and meanings. This shows English's role in our globalized world, necessitating interdisciplinary research to explore this phenomenon.
