What do English-speaking Canadians sound like and why? Can you tell
the difference between a Canadian and an American? A Canadian and
an Englishman? If so, how? Linguistically speaking is Canada a
colony of Britain or a satellite of the United States? Is there a
Canadian language? Speaking Canadian English, first published in
1971, in a non-technical way, describes English as it is spoken in
Canada - its vocabulary, pronunciation, syntax, grammar, spelling,
slang. This title comments on the history of Canadian English - how
it came to sound the way it does - and attempts to predict what
will happen to it in the future. This book will be of interest to
students of linguistics.
