Book Description

September 1, 2008
Mastify your life and open this book. We worked very hardly to get the fundas right and show you English as it's spoken in India. Take a journey from the early beginnings more than 400 years ago to what is arguably the English of the 21st century. Bollywood jargon, Hinglish slang, we're 200% sure you'll love-shove it! Features special section on India's official languages.

Lonely Planet's English Language & Culture series goes behind the scenes of languages you thought you knew. Get into the culture and humor behind common - and not so common - English expressions and learn about the local languages that inspired them.

This review is from: Indian English: Language & Culture (Paperback)
This is a very helpful guide that can easily be taken with you because of it's size. There is a ton of wonderful and useful information for people going to India. Working at a studies abroad office, I will be able to use this resource to help students to prepare themselves.
