Mie Hiramoto: Changes in Tôhoku Dialect as Spoken in Hawai‘i IndexReviewsThis volume situates the study of language standardization and variation firmly in multilingual contexts and provides case studies from both major and minoritized Asian languages. In doing so, it opens up exciting new perspectives on linguistic norms and variation, and tests traditional models and assumptions about standardization, which have hitherto too often been based on monolingual ideologies and European languages. * Wendy Ayres-Bennett, University of Cambridge, UK * This volume makes an essential contribution to the critical task of decolonizing sociolinguistics, by making the discipline more inclusive and representative. The case studies – drawn from south, southeast, east, and inner Asia – broaden the scope of sociolinguistic knowledge and stimulate important theoretical developments in our understanding of language standardization. * Gerald Roche, La Trobe University, Australia * This valuable book adds depth and breadth to the understanding of language standardization and variation by providing much-needed Asian perspectives. Complex issues such as equity, diversity and cultural revitalisation in the interplay of dominant and minoritized languages are explored in scholarly and accessible chapters that enrich the literature and inform policy. * Bob Adamson, University of Nottingham Ningbo China * This volume makes an essential contribution to the critical task of decolonizing sociolinguistics, by making the discipline more inclusive and representative.
