Speaking Canadian English - Mark M. Orkin - Bog

What do English-speaking Canadians sound like and why? 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.
