A Study of Lexical Features of China English in International Economic News Reports
I。 Introduction
English is used widely in the world as an essential tool for international communication, which results in its localization or nativization。 When people from different regions and countries communicate with each other in English, they use their unique English expressions, for they have different histories, cultures, traditions and life styles。 Because of the Englishes branded with varied cultures, the standard becomes more relative, which makes English more inclusive, more persified and more flexible。 Apart from British English and American English, there are many other Englishes such as Canadian English, Indian English, Australian English, Australian English, South African English, Singapore English, Australian English, and Japanese English。 国际经济新闻中的“中国英语”词汇特征研究:http://www.youerw.com/yingyu/lunwen_124352.html
