- W2468059378 abstract "This chapter provides information on the historical and social context of Indian English, characterising it as an Outer Circle variety of English. English was originally introduced to India when it was a British colony, and today English is spoken by about 23 % of the population of India, of which 4 % are fluent, and many belonging to the latter group might be regarded as educated speakers. This translates into around 50 million speakers of the educated variety of Indian English. The vast majority of these use it as a second language and have acquired it in classroom contexts through its use as a medium of instruction. The English language is used by Indians primarily for communication inside India, and Indian English has entered a phase that (Schneider, Language 79:233–281, 2003; Schneider, Postcolonial English: varieties around the world. Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, 2007) called endonormative stabilisation. This phase is characterised by the establishment and eventual recognition of a regional standard of English, i.e. an emerging standard IndE. While recent decades have witnessed a surge of interest in the empirical description of Indian English syntax, lexis and pragmatics, there is a lack of empirical and acoustic studies on the phonology of Indian English. The chapter summarises the existing evidence on the phonology and phonetics of Educated Indian English and concludes that one of the least well-researched aspects of Indian English phonology is its speech rhythm. It has frequently been claimed to be syllable-timed or more syllable-timed than British English, but empirical evidence on this question is lacking." @default.
