reviewed Linguistic Diversity and National Unity: Language Ecology in Thailand on December 29, 2007
Linguistic Diversity and National Unity
Helpful discussion and lists illuminating the differences between American English and British English. Some typos, especially later in the book. Attempts to be respectful of the major worldview / political differences but is not always successful.
Recommended for fans of British TV or word / linguistics aficionados.
