Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
The future of English linguistics as envisaged by the editors of Topics in English Linguistics lies in empirical studies which integrate work in English linguistics into general and theoretical linguistics on the one hand, and comparative linguistics on the other. The TiEL series features volumes that present interesting new data and analyses, and above all fresh approaches that contribute to the overall aim of the series, which is to further outstanding research in English linguistics.
MoreLong description:
This book presents an in-depth study of standard English speech production and perception in the Caribbean island of Trinidad, focusing on the secondary school context and aiming to contribute to the question of endonormativity. Sociophonetic variation in the speech of teachers and students is analyzed with respect to vowels, consonants, prosody, and covariation patterns of segmental features. The study also investigates attitudes toward local and non-local accents of standard English. The book offers one of the most extensive phonetic analyses of a postcolonial English variety to date. It will be relevant for researchers in World Englishes, phonetics, and variationist sociolinguistics.
