This mixed-methods study investigates the link between accent and
identity in an English as a lingua franca setting. The subjects,
German and French university students living in Scandinavia, pursue
their study programmes and every-day lives in English. A
quantitative speech data analysis of eight phonetic features
describes the speakers' accents, while a qualitative analysis of
introspective interview data exhibits how they differ in terms of
identity. The results provide an in-depth understanding of
individuals using English as a lingua franca. Do the German and
French speakers of English alter or keep their foreign accents in
order to express identity in the seemingly neutral Scandinavian
setting?
