Research Abstract |
Ireland provides an interesting example for examining the transition of an imported variety of English. It has experienced adoption of English firstly as a foreign language and eventually as a first language, via the status of second language; Ireland has nurtured and systematized its own grammar as Hiberno-English. This property becomes an important reference point in the study of World Englishes. This proect has examined the dynamism of Hiberno-English, contact-induced grammatical formation, and speakers' sociolinguistic awareness, based upon my regular fieldwork. The proect has undertaken a primary investigation into Hiberno-English in relation with World Englsihes, as well as with creoles.
