How are people in Asia negotiating language? With the growing hegemony of English in transnational life, the flourishing of national languages at the expense of vernaculars, the redefining of speech communities through new technologies, how are language communities finding – or losing – expression?
This book presents essays by scholars and practitioners about some trends in language across Asia, looking at language issues as they arise in some of the multiple negotiationsand translations with which many Asians live on a daily basis.
