Abstract:
			
English World-Wide
A Journal of Varieties of English

Editor: Edgar W. Schneider (University of Regensburg)

English World-Wide has established itself as the leading and most
comprehensive journal dealing with varieties of English. The focus is
on scholarly discussions of new findings in the dialectology and
sociolinguistics of the English-speaking communities (native and
second-language speakers), but general problems of sociolinguistics,
creolistics, language planning, multilingualism and modern historical
sociolinguistics are included if they have a direct bearing on modern
varieties of English. Although teaching problems are normally
excluded, English World-Wide provides important background information
for all those involved in teaching English throughout the world.
