Abstract:

India's contact with the West has resulted in the distinctive
vocabulary of Indian English. This easy to use dictionary contains
many of the European words that have been Indianized, several of which
no longer exist in British English. This is an essential handbook for
all Indian speakers wishing to improve their English.
