Religious language: Its role in nativizing Caribbean English

Early studies of New World Englishes, including Caribbean English (CE), were primarily concerned with their genesis. With the emergence in the 1950's of generative linguistics, the focus of language study gradually shifted to more formal, rule-based descriptions. Subsequently, pidginization/creolization became the framework from which CE would be studied.
