New Englishes or World Englishes

According to Jenkins, “the term ‘New Englishes’ covers a large number of varieties of English which are far from uniform in their characteristics and current use” (22) although they might share some features. Platt, Weber and Ho define New English as a variety which fulfils the following criteria: 1) it has developed through the education system; 2) it has developed in an area where a native variety of English was not the language spoken by most of the population; 3) it is used for a range of functions among those who speak or write it in the region where it is used; and 4) it has become “localized” or “nativized” by adopting some language features of its own.
Currently, there are a considerable number of texts on World Englishes. Platt Platt, Weber and Ho highlight the importance of linguistic features (i.e. sounds, sentence structures and special expressions) which make it possible to define a particular New English and provide an extensive list of the functions of the New Englishes in several parts of the world, their similarities and differences in terms of accents and stress patterns, vocabulary, morphological, syntactic and pragmatic features.
Mesthrie and Bhatt carried out a similar analysis of World Englishes. However, they take a broad view of the term, including prototypical varieties like Indian English or Nigerian English, but also varieties like Black South African English or individual varieties of native American Indian English, varieties which have undergone language shift (i.e. Indian South African English) or are in the process of doing (i.e. Singapore English). Essentially, Mesthrie and Bhatt identify the “regular and widely, informally accepted features” (47) of World Englishes in the realm of phonetics and phonology, syntax, lexis and pragmatics.
Equally, Melchers and Shaw presented an overview of the varieties of English around the globe in their phonological, lexical, grammatical and pragmatic dimensions. Alternatively, Melchers and Shaw’s description of world Englishes follow Kachru’s concentric circles (the Inner Circle of
English, made up of “norm-providing varieties”, the Outer Circle of English, including “norm- developing varieties” and the Expanding Circle of English, with “norm-dependent varieties”) and on the geographical location of the varieties. Their description focuses mainly on varieties of the Inner Circle (England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Liberia and the Caribbean) and the Outer Circle (South Asia, Africa and South East Asia). Significantly, Kirkpatrick offers a thorough description of a wide range of native and non-
native varieties and then discusses the implications of these varieties for English language learning and teaching. In essence, Kirkpatrick’s description of selected varieties of World Englishes takes into consideration the pedagogical consequences of adopting an alternative approach to English varieties in the language classroom.
