The Influence of the Lexifier

- Beyond Grammaticalization in Singapore English

Bag om The Influence of the Lexifier

The study of language contact in the "new" English varieties is frequently influenced by sociolinguistic approaches and reference to substrate languages but much less often to functionally-based contact linguistic theory. In The Influence of the Lexifier, Ziegeler applies grammaticalization and other explanations of language change to many under-researched features of Singapore English, highlighting the role of the co-existing lexifier in the unique contact setting of Singapore.
