Yasmine Gooneratne says that there continues to be “deep-seated resentment in countries such as India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka” toward English. Why is this so? Where else in the world might such resentment occur? How is growing up as an English speaker in the United States different from growing up with English in India, Barbados, or Jamaica?3. Why is “ writing against English in English” a paradox? Why has writing in English been “a source of anguish” for some South Asian writers? What does their experience reveal about the psychological aspects of language and identity?7.

Does Bailey’s claim contradict Crystal’s claims in the preceding selection about English use? After reading the Jackson article, What can a degree in linguistics lead to?
