"So while English plays an important role in the increasingly multilingual, globalizing world, global language is not following rapidly on the heels of multinational corporations. Rather than imposing a standard language on an unwilling world, English itself is going native, forming local varieties with distinctly local forms and flavors wherever it lands. Because of this, sociolinguists have begun speaking not of English, but of Englishes, the plural emphasizing the increasing diversity that English experiences as it shows up in new places and contexts."
