This timely book brings together research on the features and
evolution of Cameroon English and Cameroon Pidgin English,
approached from a variety of innovative multilingual frameworks
that focus on the emergence of mother tongue speakers. The authors
illustrate how language and population contact, history
(colonialism), multilingualism, translation, and indigenization
have contributed to shaping the norms of postcolonial Englishes and
Pidgins. Employing naturalistic data, the volume provides a new
fascinating perspective that better situates and supplements
existing research in the fields of African Englishes and
Creolistics. It is particularly of key interest to sociolinguists,
contact linguists, Africanists, Anglicists, creolists and
historical linguists.
