Overview
- Argues that Englishes beyond the inner circle (e.g. Indian English) have already been codified and firmly established
- Problematizes the terminologies currently used for certain World Englishes and calls for the need to distinguish, for example, between ‘Chinglish’ and ‘China English’
- Addresses the contentious terms such as: native speakers, foreign varieties, glocal, Englishes and English as an International Language
- Provides classroom exercises which demonstrate how World Englishes can be used in the EFL Classroom
