Study Notes

Schneider’s Dynamic Model of New Englishes

  • Schneider proposes a dynamic model for the evolution of New Englishes, suggesting a shared process across different locations.
  • The model identifies five phases: foundation, exonormative stabilization, nativization, endonormative stabilization, and differentiation.
  • Foundation: Initial contact between English settlers and indigenous population, with limited English language contact for settlers and bilingualism emerging in some indigenous individuals.
  • Exonormative stabilization: English gains official status in government and education, with norms from the settlers being adopted by the indigenous elite.
  • Nativization: After political independence, variations and innovations appear across linguistic levels, including phonology, lexicon, grammar, and discourse.
  • Endonormative Stabilization: Emerges post-"Event X", a defining moment signifying complete detachment from the mother country. Local norms gain acceptance, with codification through dictionaries and grammars being initiated.

Philippine English in Schneider’s Framework

  • Philippine English is often viewed as transitioning from phase 3 (nativization) to phase 4 (endonormative stabilization) in Schneider’s model.
  • The article argues for the existence of "Event X" in the Philippines, identifying the ratification of two inequitable Acts regarding post-war rehabilitation as the pivotal moment.
  • The two Acts granted the United States extensive rights over Philippine resources, sparking a sense of disillusionment and detachment from the United States, triggering "Event X."
  • The article stresses that the post-Event X period should be considered in understanding Philippine English's development, as these incidents contribute to the process of nativization and local identity formation.

Linguistic Evidence for Endonormative Stabilization in Philippine English

  • The article notes the use of Filipino English as the preferred label, reflecting a shift towards a locally-defined identity.
  • It highlights the flourishing of Philippine literature in English, showcasing the creativity and recognition of this variety of English.
  • Linguistic studies have observed an increasing degree of stabilization and homogeneity in Philippine English, evident in areas like grammar and lexicon.
  • Lexical and grammatical elements specific to Philippine English are increasingly documented and recognized, further supporting endonormative stabilization, a process where the language is actively codified and standardized based on local norms.
  • The codification process is evident in the development of dictionaries and grammars specific to Philippine English.
  • The article emphasizes the significant role of corpus linguistics research in analyzing the specific features and patterns of Philippine English, contributing to its codification and recognition as distinct.
