About this book
Reviews
“This book is an illuminating study into how translingual social media Englishes are framed and enacted by EFL learners, written and presented in a clear and engaging manner. It is an important addition to the field of sociolinguistics, critical discourse analysis and language pedagogy in general, and will serve as a valuable stimulus for educators, graduate students and young researchers in related fields.” (Yanhua Cheng, Discourse Studies, Vol. 22 (5), 2020)
