Is British English becoming more like American English? If so, why, and in
what ways? This book compares examples of American and British language
data from the 1930s, 1960s, 1990s and 2000s to track the most important
ways that both varieties are changing over time and compares the extent
to which they are following similar paths using a mixture of computer and
human analysis. The analysis is carried out across several levels, including
spelling differences (e.g. colour vs color], vocabulary (truck vs lorry) and a
range of morphological, grammatical, semantic and pragmatic features,
Baker explores the changing aspects of American and British society which
help to explain the findings.
