This book presents a state-of-the-art account of what is known about New Zealand English. It brings together in one volume findings from a decade of investigation of this post-colonial dialect. It covers the vocabulary, pronunciation, intonation and syntax of New Zealand English; addresses questions of its origins and development; considers how the variety is changing and becoming more different from other Englishes; and investigates the social dimensions, including ethnic variation.
