Nice to meet you!
We are Joe, Dora and Ivy. Welcome to our blog about the recent development of localized Englishes in Asia. We would like to provide you interesting items of English usage in China, Hong Kong and Singapore so as to let you know more about the different English feature across East Asia. Apart from that, some basic background information of what linguists study about these linguistic phenomenon will also be discussed later on.
After reading the blog, we hope you can receive a message that English has become the homogeneous medium for every people to communicate and encounter people from different nations but at the same time, local varieties of English can represent their own identities.
Please enjoy and have fun with this blog!!!
