The Influence of the Lexifier is written by Debra Ziegeler and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 3110785250 (ISBN 10) and 9783110785258 (ISBN 13).
The study of language contact in the „new" English varieties is frequently influenced by sociolinguistic approaches and reference to substrate languages but much less often to functionally-based contact linguistic theory. In The Influence of the Lexifier, Ziegeler applies grammaticalization and other explanations of language change to many under-researched features of Singapore English, highlighting the role of the co-existing lexifier in the unique contact setting of Singapore.
