Bringing together an international range of contributors, this book explores face-to-face uses of English in a range of grassroots multilingual contexts. Divided into three parts, the book explores the spread of English in former areas of British domination, including Africa and the East, in trade and work migration, and in forced migration by refugees. The chapters present cutting-edge case studies that draw on spoken data from Uganda, South Africa, Bahrain, China, Bangladesh, Germany, Italy, and the UK. In doing so, the book presents an empirical basis for the further study and modeling of world Englishes. It examines the scope for integrating Englishes at the grassroots into existing models of English and explores relations between notions of hybrid languages, translanguaging, polylanguaging, and world Englishes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eEnglish as a second and foreign language is increasingly being used at the grassroots level, by individuals from disadvantaged backgrounds with often little or no access to formal education, in business and in contexts outside of international organizations, education, and academia.
