摘要

本研究采用了一种象形学的、基于交替的方法来探索世界英语的语法变化，使用了来自19亿单词的全球网络英语语料库的数据。这项研究的宏观取向，调查了十种已知易受历时变化影响的变体，有助于确定一些总体趋势，包括内圈变体和东南亚变体的典型进步，美国英语的超中心性，以及印度英语在南亚的震中性。可能的解释因素包括口语化、语法简单性/复杂性、发展状况和地域邻近性。

Grammatical variation in World Englishes

This study adopts an onomasiological, alternation-based approach to the exploration of grammatical variation across World Englishes, using data sourced from the 1.9 billion-word Global Web-based English corpus. The macro-orientation of the study, which investigates a set of ten alternations known to be susceptible to diachronic change, facilitates identification of a number of general trends, including the typical advancement of the Inner Circle varieties and of the South-East Asian varieties, the hypercentrality of American English, and the epicentrality of Indian English in South Asia. Possible explanatory factors include colloquialisation, grammatical simplicity/complexity, developmental status, and areal proximity.

期刊介绍： English World-Wide has established itself as the leading and most comprehensive journal dealing with varieties of English. The focus is on scholarly discussions of new findings in the dialectology and sociolinguistics of the English-speaking communities (native and second-language speakers), but general problems of sociolinguistics, creolistics, language planning, multilingualism and modern historical sociolinguistics are included if they have a direct bearing on modern varieties of English. Although teaching problems are normally excluded, English World-Wide provides important background information for all those involved in teaching English throughout the world.
