English in Indian Media.
Khubchandani, Lachman M.
Indian Journal of Applied Linguistics, v26 n2 p41-65 Jul-Dec 2000
Examines the use of English in urban India, with specific focus on the three domains of mass media, print, television, and advertising. Points to the emergence of Angrezi, which can potentially take a divergent path as an Ausbau language different from the global English. Brings under discussion interesting examples of bilingual and biscriptal sensitivity of the Indian educated mind. (Author/VWL)
