Chandrika Balasubramanian’s book Register Variation in Indian English (2009) was one of the first large-scale empirical, corpus-based investigations of variation within an international English. While she predominantly has published on World Englishes, and specifically on Indian English, she has also published on various areas of language pedagogy, and her recent work focuses on the pedagogical implications of World Englishes scholarship. Balasubramanian currently lives and works at Sultan Qaboos University in Muscat, Oman, where she teaches sociolinguistics and language.
