New Zealand Ways of Speaking English by Allan Bell

This is the first collection of research papers on the sociolinguistics and pragmatics of New Zealand English. The book provides information on the structure and use of NZ English in a range of different social and regional contexts. Topics covered include the question of a New Zealand pidgin, changes in attitude to NZ English and differences in New Zealand women's and men's speech. In addition to what it contributes to the knowledge of New Zealand English this volume also makes an important contribution to sociolinguistic theoretical and descriptive research more generally.
