Synopsis "The Jamaican Englishes in their language spectrum: When did Creole speakers start using English, deploying Jamaican Standard English as the official l (in English)"
Seminar paper from the year 2022 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Other, grade: 2,3, University of Mannheim, course: World English's, language: English, abstract: The spread of the English language was primarily due to colonization and colonial policies instigated by Great Britain and its Crown. The location of concern for this term paper is the Caribbean, especially the largest former British colony in the Caribbean - Jamaica. The Island is of multiple English-speaking countries. It is interesting to explore the two variants linguistically, Standard Jamaican English and the English-based Jamaican Creole that have existed almost since colonization. However, we cannot get headfirst into the linguistic features of languages like Jamaican Standard English and Jamaican Creole. Firstly, there is a need to establish the history of the Jamaican languages, its current state, and perhaps even a prevision into the future.
