This book provides a first systematic and comprehensive account of English in East and South Asia (EESA) based on current research by scholars in the field. Firstly, it provides a rigorous theoretical overview that is necessary for the understanding of EESA in relation to the burgeoning works on World Englishes as a discipline. It has several unique features.
Thirdly, the vibrancy of the sociolinguistic and pragmatic realities that govern actual English in use in a wide variety of domains such as social media, the Internet and popular culture/music are discussed. Secondly, in the section on linguistic features, a systematic template was made available to the contributors so that linguistic coverage of the variety/varieties is similar. Finally, this volume includes an extensive bibliography of works on EESA, thus providing a useful and valuable resource for language researchers,
