DeCEN is a Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL) system for helping English as a Second Language (ESL) students learn to determine the countability of English nouns. The countability of an English noun determines whether the noun needs number distinction or not. Determining the countability of English nouns is difficult for many Asian students. It is especially problematic for Japanese students because of the difference between what is countable in Japanese and in English. The traditional way of teaching the countability system by categorizing nouns based on their features is not effective for ESL students because each category tends to include some exceptions (e.g. Food category is non-countable; "Potato" is countable.) and does not adequately explain why many nouns can be both countable and non-countable. Another problem is that it assumes that ESL students have the same view about nouns as native English speakers do, so it tends to ask questions, such as "is it specific? "is it too small to count?," which are answered differently depending on their native languages. A new model of the countability system was designed to help determine the countability of English nouns in context by classifying each use of a noun into one of four categories. The DeCEN system introduces students to the new model and, through exercises, helps students develop their own reasoning habits in determining countability by using the model. The program can provide help based on students' answers and chooses the next exercise based on their performance. Therefore the program functions as a tutor. DeCEN is a Java applet that can be used from anywhere via the Internet. Its skeletal version can be used as an authoring tool to create other tutors. This thesis describes each stage of the project, provides details of the system, and concludes with the results of a formative evaluation of the system by actual ESL students.

This book is the first comprehensive analysis of nominal plural marking, its morphosyntax and semantics, across different African varieties of English. Mohr explores the rich diversity in the varieties and how different conceptualizations of the number category are realized across different cultures. The investigation of unstandardized noun plurals in Kenyan, Tanzanian, Ghanaian and Nigerian Englishes is based on a mixed methods design drawing on corpus linguistics, acceptability questionnaires and psycholinguistic experiments. In this vein, the book not only contributes to the description of each of these four varieties, but also sheds light on standardization processes and language change in New Englishes. Importantly, it is a plea for the triangulation of data and mixed methods approaches in World Englishes research, as the combination of these methods grants insight into unforeseen areas of language structures and use. This volume is a useful reference work for students and researchers in World Englishes, varieties of English and African Studies, as well as those interested in linguistic anthropology.

The completely redesigned Grammar of Spoken and Written English is a comprehensive corpus-based reference grammar. GSWE describes the structural characteristics of grammatical constructions in English, as do other reference grammars. But GSWE is unique in that it gives equal attention to describing the patterns of language use for each grammatical feature, based on empirical analyses of grammatical patterns in a 40-million-word corpus of spoken and written registers. Grammar-in-use is characterized by three inter-related kinds of information: frequency of grammatical features in spoken and written registers, frequencies of the most common lexico-grammatical patterns, and analysis of the discourse factors influencing choices among related grammatical features. GSWE includes over 350 tables and figures highlighting the results of corpus-based investigations. Throughout the book, authentic examples illustrate all research findings. The empirical descriptions document the lexico-grammatical features that are especially common in face-to-face-conversation compared to those that are especially common in academic writing. Analyses of fiction and newspaper articles are included as further benchmarks of language use. GSWE contains over 6,000 authentic examples from these four registers, illustrating the range of lexico-grammatical features in real-world speech and writing. In addition, comparisons between British and American English reveal specific regional differences. Now completely redesigned and available in an electronic edition, the Grammar of Spoken and Written English remains a unique and indispensable reference work for researchers, language teachers, and students alike.
