Such a replacement correlates with the\u0000 increasing grammaticalization of the semi-modals in terms of semantic and quantitative developments. The current paper explores\u0000 the differential grammaticalization of these items in four Asian varieties of English – those spoken in India, Hong Kong,\u0000 Singapore, and the Philippines – with the aim of building a grammaticalization index that will allow us to measure the extent to\u0000 which the replacement of modal must with the semi-modals is completed in each of the varieties as compared to\u0000 British English. After analyzing data from the private dialogue sections of the corresponding ICE corpora, Hong Kong English is\u0000 shown to be the variety in which the replacement is closest to British English, followed by the Philippines, Singapore and\u0000 India.","PeriodicalId":45502,"journal":{"name":"English World-Wide","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2019-06-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1075/EWW.00025.LOU","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49140716","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Quantitative\u0000 analysis reveals that be like is the lead variant in the quotative system used by young Dubliners and is\u0000 advancing along a similar, though not identical, cline of grammaticalization to that found in urban Canadian English.

Ten English-Malay bilinguals – five English-dominant and five\u0000 Malay-dominant – who differed greatly in their language dominance took part in this study. In an ethnic discriminability task that\u0000 involved 60 naïve raters, Malay-dominant bilinguals were significantly more often correctly identified as ethnically Malay and\u0000 were rated as having a significantly more perceivable Malay-accented English accent, while those who were English-dominant had an\u0000 English accent that lacked ethnic-specific features so much so that naïve raters, including raters who were English-Malay\u0000 bilinguals, were less able to identify the speakers as ethnically Malay. The results of this study indicate that early sequential\u0000 bilinguals or simultaneous bilinguals of the same two languages need not have similar accents. The findings also suggest that\u0000 language dominance is a determinant of accent variation in Singapore English, at least for the English-Malay bilinguals.","PeriodicalId":45502,"journal":{"name":"English World-Wide","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2019-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46080814","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, a feature’s “failure to\u0000 appear in even a very large corpus (such as the Web) is not evidence for ungrammaticality, nor is appearance evidence for\u0000 grammaticality” (Schütze and Sprouse 2013: 29). It is therefore advisable to complement\u0000 corpus-based analyses with experimental data, so as to (ideally) obtain converging evidence. This paper reviews reasons for\u0000 combining corpus linguistic with psycholinguistic experimental methods, and demonstrates how research on varieties of English can\u0000 profit from experimentation. For a study of conversion in Asian Englishes, the maze task (Forster, Guerrera, and Elliot 2009; Forster 2010) was implemented with a\u0000 web-based, open-source software. The results of the experiment dovetail with a previous analysis of the Corpus of Global\u0000 Web-based English (Davies 2013). These results should encourage\u0000 researchers not to base findings exclusively on corpus evidence, but corroborate them by means of experimental data.","PeriodicalId":45502,"journal":{"name":"English World-Wide","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2019-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43569576","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim is to\u0000 examine regional and/or functional variation among Pakistani and U.S. English blogs and columns and its possible causes. The\u0000 results show that Pakistani and U.S. columns differ significantly from each other, while blogs have less significant differences.\u0000 Further investigation into sub-categories of blogs reveals significant differences among technology blogs, while news blogs and\u0000 individual blogs differ less significantly. An examination of possible causes shows that geographical origin, the situational\u0000 characteristics of the register, and the internet as a medium play a role in variation. It is further suggested that internet\u0000 registers might be evolving rapidly with the fast-changing landscape of products and services on the internet.","PeriodicalId":45502,"journal":{"name":"English World-Wide","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2019-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43140003","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We adopt a quantitative-qualitative approach starting with a collostructional analysis of the two constructions to assess association strengths between lexical verbs, semantic domains and Aktionsart categories on the one hand, and progressive and non-progressive constructions on the other hand. We then explore the constructions semantically and qualitatively. Overall, associations between the two constructions and Achievements and Accomplishments on the one hand, and semantic domains other than Activity or Existence on the other, do not unanimously influence writers’ constructional choices. Further, there may not be one single core meaning of the progressive, but rather a complex of meanings activated by the use of the progressive construction. Ultimately, we paint a multifaceted picture of the meanings of the progressive and show the benefit of combining quantitative and qualitative approaches to explore constructional semantics across Englishes.","PeriodicalId":45502,"journal":{"name":"English World-Wide","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2018-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43294371","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
