Title
The Dynamics of English in Namibia: Perspectives on an emerging variety
Edited by Anne Schröder
The English language as spoken in Namibia has virtually been overlooked in most textbooks, handbooks, and surveys of varieties of English around the world, or else has only been mentioned in passing.

2021 Chapter 6. The phonetics of Namibian English: Investigating vowels as local features in a global context The Dynamics of English in Namibia: Perspectives on an emerging variety, Schröder, Anne (ed.), pp. 111–134 | Chapter
Namibian English (NamE) is frequently referred to as an offspring of (White) South African English (SAfrE), although more recently researchers have tried to describe it as a variety in its own right. In particular, Kautzsch and Schröder (2016) describe several phonetic features seemingly… read more
2020 Ethnic variation in the phonology of Namibian English: A first approach to Baster English English World-Wide 41:2, pp. 193–224 | Article
Studies on the pronunciation of Namibian English (NamE) have shown strong evidence for ethnically conditioned variation within the NamE vowel system. Thus, NamE should not be seen as a monolithic entity but rather as a group of ethnically and/or socially conditioned varieties. In this paper, we… read more

2009 Fowler’s Modern English Usage at the interface of lexis and grammar Exploring the Lexis–Grammar Interface, Römer-Barron, Ute and Rainer Schulze (eds.), pp. 69–87 | Article
The relationship between lexicon and syntax poses a problem to theoretical linguistics but also to the normal language user as the theoretical division is reflected in a division of labour between dictionaries on the one hand and grammars on the other; and it seems as if only usage guides deal with… read more
