商品簡介
This book presents phonological variation as a topic that intersects with and illuminates several interesting and important issues, including accent and identity, variation and language attitudes, decisions about teaching, and the nature of English in the world. It examines how global and local influences interact by taking Hong Kong – ‘Asia’s World City’ – as a case study of how variation is the new norm under globalization and superdiversity. The challenge for language teaching and language testing lies in acknowledging this inherent variability while retaining pedagogical coherence and societal acceptance. A data-based approach with quantitative and qualitative data anchors the discussion and assists in the development of criteria for model selection. The book presents a coherent approach to the selection of pronunciation models for language teaching, one that may have relevance for other contexts. The interrelationship of the local and the global is a strand that both informs the approach and connects the findings with current debates on global English.
