Routledge Revivals: Linguistic Minorities Project (Routledge Revivals: Language, Education and Society Series #2)
by Xavier Couillaud Marilyn Martin-Jones Anna Morawska Euan Reid Verity Saifullah Khan Greg SmithThe ‘other’ languages of England — those which originate in South and East Asia, and Southern and Eastern Europe — are now important parts of everyday life in urban England. First published in 1985, this book gives detailed information about which languages are in widespread use among children and adults, patterns of language use in different social contexts, the teaching of these community languages inside and outside of mainstream schools, and the educational implications of this linguistic diversity for all children in England. They authors argue that this continued and widespread bilingualism is a valuable potential resource for both the speakers and society as a whole.

The Royal We: Your new addiction! The most joyful and regal book you'll read in summer 2022
by Jessica Morgan Heather CocksLOVING PRINCE HARRY AND MEGHAN MARKLE'S ENGAGEMENT? Fall in love with the perfect book to feed your royal addiction... where an unassuming American meets the future king of England... Rebecca Porter was never one for fairy tales. Her twin sister is the romantic who fantasizes about glamour, fame and fortune – Bex has always been a tomboy. So when she spends a year at Oxford, and finds herself living down the hall from Prince Nicholas, she is the only girl not interested in dating the future king. But eventually Bex can't resist falling for Nick, and as their friendship turns to romance, Bex becomes immersed in ritzy society, dazzling ski trips, and dinners at Kensington Palace – a world away from her humble upbringing. The relationship also comes with unimaginable baggage: hysterical tabloids, Nick's sparkling ex-girlfriends, and a family whose private life is much thornier and more tragic than anyone on the outside knows. The pressures are almost too much to bear, as Bex struggles to reconcile the man she loves with the monarch he's fated to become. WHAT THEY'RE SAYING ABOUT THE ROYAL WE... 'Pages of biting humor and breathtaking glamour rewrite a fairy tale into something more satisfying than a stack of tabloids' KIRKUS. 'A breezy, juicy novel that's like The Princess Diaries with fewer made-up countries and more sex' ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY. 'Royal watchers and chick-lit fans alike will delight in this sparkling tale. Pure fun' PUBLISHERS WEEKLY. 'The pages turn as easily as a tabloid feature on the royal couple - and you'll end up just as obsessed with Bex and Nick' GLAMOUR. 'A joy from start to finish. The Royal We is that rare novel that makes you think, makes you cry, and is such fun to read that you'll want to clear your schedule until you've turned the final page. But be warned - Cocks and Morgan have created a world so rich, a romance so compelling, and characters so funny and alive, that you'll be terribly sad to see them go' J. COURTNEY SULLIVAN, New York Times-bestselling author of The Engagements and Maine. 'A delicious romp of a royal romance' MACLEAN'S. 'A thoroughly entertaining, funny and romantic read' A SPOONFUL OF HAPPY ENDINGS. 'If you love the Royal family and a juicy tabloid read [...] you must check out The Royal We' CONFESSIONS OF A BOOK ADDICT.
