The author focuses on authentic data taken from the International Corpus of English (the Hong Kong component) and the Corpus of Global Web-based English to track the ways in which the English language in Hong Kong has been adapted by its users. She also analyses the emergence of new forms and structures in its grammar and discourse. While the phonetic and phonological aspects of this variety of English have been well documented, its grammatical peculiarities and social language use have been hitherto neglected. This book offers original insights into the grammatical and pragmatic/discoursal features of Hong Kong English and will therefore be of interest to those working in fields such as World Englishes and corpus linguistics. 000780672 650_0 $$aLinguistics. 000780672 650_0 $$aLanguage and languages. 000780672 650_0 $$aDiscourse analysis. 000780672 650_0 $$aLexicology. 000780672 650_0 $$aCorpora (Linguistics) 000780672 650_0 $$aLinguistic change. 000780672 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9781137519634 000780672 852__ $$bebk 000780672 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1057/978-1-137-51964-1$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000780672 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:780672$$pGLOBAL_SET 000780672 980__ $$aEBOOK 000780672 980__ $$aBIB 000780672 982__ $$aEbook 000780672 983__ $$aOnline 000780672 994__ $$a92$$bISE
