Abstract:
The position of English as the language of instruction in Nigeria is informed by the Education Ordinance of 1882. In multilingual Nigeria, English remains a dominant language as indigenous languages in the country suffer from the threats of negative language attitudes. This paper is immersed in the sociolinguistics of multilingual Nigeria in terms of the co-existence of English and indigenous languages in the country. Nigeria is a mega speech community, where there is need for English and Nigerian languages to co-exist in nationbuilding. However, negative language attitudes do not facilitate a

Abstract This study investigated the attitudes of Nigerians living in Europe towards accents of English. It has been observed that as migrants settle in new communities, they enter new linguistic ecologies, which tend to influence their linguistic behaviours. Language attitudes research focusing on migrants has shown that migration significantly impacts upon migrants’ attitudes towards the new (varieties of) languages to which they are exposed. In light of this and in response to the paucity of research on attitudes of Nigerian/s (migrants) towards varieties of English, this study investigated

Abstract:
The changing demographics of higher education are bringing the teaching of English and the teaching of foreign languages closer together. For an increasing number of students, English is a foreign, a second, an international, or a global language, not the language of a unitary mother tongue and culture. Increasingly, students of French, German, or Spanish are learning a foreign language on the background of experiences of migrations, displacements, and expatriations but also on the background of multilingual and multicultural experiences.

Introduction. Communication apprehension is significant in understanding the language skills acquisition of foreign language students. However, studies on communication apprehension have been devoted mainly to second language learners of the English Language. Consequently, there is, in the body of literature, insufficient evidence to understand factors that impact communication apprehension of third language learners. This gap can limit the capacity of researchers interested in foreign language to understand the mechanism underlying third language learners’ communication apprehension. This war

The present form of the English language in Nigeria is the outcome of its contact with the indigenous languages of the region: a confirmation of the truism that languages in contact influence each other. When English was initially introduced through trade, then entrenched through colonialism, it was ‘derobed’ of its British flavour. Paradoxically, such a state of affairs brings to mind a statement by Enoch Powell, a professor of Classics and former Conservative member of the British Parliament, who noted, rather eccentrically: ‘Others may speak and read English – more or less – but it is our l

The general conclusion is that certain patterns having a high frequency constitute a system in Nigerian usage, differing in important respects from native-speaker systems, though lacking stability.

Of all the levels of linguistic analysis, it is at the phonological level that differences in the dialects of a language are more easily noticed (Ogu, 1992: 82). The phonology of a language can be investigated at two sub-levels: segmental and suprasegmental. Investigating the segmental micro-level entails looking at phonemes – the vowels and the consonants. Suprasegmentals are linguistically significant elements that go beyond individual segments, and include syllable, tone, stress, rhythm and intonation.
