Applying a combination of empirical, theoretical, and descriptive approaches, the authors investigate not only official languages such as English, Mandarin, Malay, and Tamil, but also minority languages such as the Chinese vernaculars and South Asian and Austronesian languages. The chapters in this volume trace the historical development, contemporary status, and functions of these languages, as well as potential scenarios for the future. Exploring the tension between language policies and linguistic realities in Singapore, the contributions capture the shifting educational, political, and societal priorities over time"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 650 0 $a Language policy $z Singapore. 650 0 $a Multilingualism $z Singapore. 650 0 $a Language and culture $z Singapore. 650 7 $a Language and culture $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00992135 650 7 $a Language and languages $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00992154 650 7 $a Language policy $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00992402 650 7 $a Multilingualism $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01028907 651 0 $a Singapore $x Languages. 651 7 $a Singapore $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01205288 776 08 $i Online version: $t Multilingual Singapore. $d Abingdon, Oxon ; New York : Routledge, 2021 $z 9780429280146 $w (DLC) 2020053253 700 1 $a Jain, Ritu, $e editor. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231219013437.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=7D74ADFE9E3C11EE84E191EF36ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
