Teachers’ Perceptions And Attitudes Towards British And American English

Authors : Hocine Nacira . Gueche Meriem .

Abstract

British and American English are currently the two most influential varieties of English around the world. The present study investigates the attitudes of seventeen teachers from the department of English at Badji Mokhtar University towards these two cognate forms. This issue has been explored through a questionnaire which was carefully designed to serve the purpose. The findings revealed the teachers’ awareness of the necessity of acquainting Algerian university students with both British and American varieties. Nonetheless, some teachers remain reluctant to the consideration of the latter.
