Description

This volume approaches current multilingualism as a new linguistic dispensation, in urgent need of research-led, reflective scrutiny. The book addresses the emergent global and local patterns of multingual use and acquisition across the world and explores the major trends that characterize today's multilingualism. Its fifteen chapters discuss a range of issues relating to the quintessential and unique properties of multilingual situations.
