Publisher's Synopsis

Richard Allsopp shows the contribution of homeland British English to Caribbean English Creoles which spread across the Anglophone Caribbean as it merged with the hundreds of West African languages introduced during transatlantic slavery to form those English-based Creoles. He also identifies the various levels of Caribbean English usage from formal to anti-formal and the various sub-levels of the latter.
