ON THE WEB

 

The renovated Language Varieties website has moved to http://www.une.edu.au/langnet. Its aim is to provide accessible information to non-linguists (especially teachers and students) about pidgins, creoles, minority dialects, regional dialects and indigenized varieties. (So an attempt as been made to keep it uncomplicated in both content and design.) The site contains definitions, tips for using such varieties in the classroom, references and links to other sites. At present, it includes descriptions of Hawai‘i Creole English, African American (Vernacular) English, Aboriginal English, and Geordie (Newcastle English) Singlish (Singapore Colloquial English), Bislama, Tok Pisin and Kamtok (Cameroon Pidgin).

The new website for the Institut d’Etudes Créoles et Francophones (Aix-en-Provence, France) is at http://lpl.univ-aix.fr/iecf.
