Languages and Cultures
The English language is the world's number one communications vehicle and information source. But it does so with the cooperation of such major non-English languages as Mandarin Chinese. Contributors typically want to know about the native languages and cultures of former colonies in Africa and Asia; immigrant, minority ethnic and refugee communities worldwide; indigenous Australians; Pacific Ocean islanders; and Scandinavian and Slavic countries.
