As English continues to spread as a global language, it is often talked about as a make-or-break resource for people all over the world. While adding English to one’s linguistic repertoire can provide symbolic and material opportunities, access to such affordances is often mediated by strong judgements on how it should be used. These powerful ideas can position ‘non-native’ users of English in situations of linguistic inequality, especially when their linguistic practices do not fit recognised varieties, standards, or teaching models. This book critically explores how scholars, experts and lay speakers construct conceptualisations of English as a global lingua franca, with a particular focus on discursive practices emerging from the Spanish-speaking world. It draws from ELF perspectives, still scarce in these settings, to investigate what English means to these speakers and how they make meaning through its use. The empirical data presented analyses how speakers in Chile, Mexico and Spain construct multiple and often contested interpretative repertoires to talk about English and diverse ways of speaking it. It highlights the semiotic and linguistic effects of such ideas and the contextual variability with which users mobilise contrasting ideological positions from moment to moment. As speakers’ ontological fluidity contrasts sharply with the monolithic linguistic representations they report to encounter in their English language education, the book appeals to teachers as well as academics and users. It encourages us all to actively examine the performative power of ideas about language and variation, and to use the critical awareness to tackle enduring forms of sociolinguistic injustice.

ELF researchers have been describing the dynamic and fluid ways in which multilingual speakers shape English in transcultural communication for more than two decades now. While this work seriously challenges traditional, static, and prejudiced views of English, the diverse and variable nature of its uses and users continues to be undermined in many EFL programs around the world. This is also the case in many Latin American contexts, which have been described as fertile ground for native-speaker ideology, but where the body of ELF literature is still scarce when compared to Asian and European settings. This book is the first to bring together a series of empirical studies on the implications of ELF perspectives for communicative, educational, and policy-making practices across different Latin American countries. It not only explores how ELF perspectives can inform students and educators in these settings, but also how locally emerging voices, experiences, and research traditions can help expand ELF theorising as well. The volume generates new opportunities for dialogue and global collaboration between researchers and practitioners interested in ELF studies as a critical approach to English language use and education.
