The present study focuses on lexicogrammatical routines of South Asian Englishes that are associated with so-called ‘cultural keywords’. These routines are particularly significant manifestations of the overarching process of the linguistic acculturation of the English language in new postcolonial… read more

The most productive strand of this discussion concerned the modelling of different Englishes,… read more
2010 Lexical gravity across varieties of English: An ICE-based study of n-grams in Asian Englishes International Journal of Corpus Linguistics 15:4, pp. 520–548 | Article
In our earlier work on three Asian Englishes and British English, we showed how lexico-syntactic co-occurrence preferences for three argument structure constructions revealed differences between varieties that correlated well with Schneider’s (2003, 2007) model of evolutionary stages. Here, we turn… read more

Specifically, this paper will present some findings of three case… read more
2009 The lexicogrammar of present-day
Indian English: Corpus-based perspectives on structural nativisation Exploring the Lexis–Grammar Interface, Römer-Barron, Ute and Rainer Schulze (eds.), pp. 117–135 | Article
The present paper puts into perspective four areas in which new local norms have emerged in the lexicogrammar of Indian English, the largest institutionalised second-language variety of English world-wide: (1) collocations, (2) new prepositional verbs, (3) new ditransitive verbs, and (4)… read more
2009 Collostructional nativisation in New Englishes: Verb-construction associations in the International Corpus of English English World-Wide 30:1, pp. 27–51 | Article
