The World English(es) and linguistic diversity in the English language class:
proposal of a didactic activity
ABSTRACT
- Due to the process of colonization of the British Empire and the current economic and
- cultural impact of the United States, it is not difficult to find discourses that associate the
- English language exclusively with these people. However, with globalization and
- technological advances, authors such as Crystal (2003) argue that the English language is
- currently a global language, since it has a prominent role around the world, including in the
- educational environment. Nonetheless, such a reach of the English language does not
- make it, in fact, conceived as a language of all, which may even influence the learning of
- English as an additional language. In such manner, we find the World English(es)
- (BOLTON, 2006; RAJAGOPALAN, 2005), perspective that promotes a plural conception
- of the English language, providing a vision of this language according to a perspective of
- multiplicity. Thus, the aim of this article is to discuss how the World English(es) can be a
- tool in the dissemination of linguistic diversity in the English class. In addition, a didactic
- activity of English teaching will be presented, formulated through the content-based
- approach (LEFFA, 2016), based on the prism of the World English(es) and linguistic
- plurality.
