Research into varieties of Englishes around the world has received much

attention from scholars. This book offers a new perspective from a cognitive

inter and intra lexemic analysis of prepositional variations in Malaysian

English and contrasts them with similar prepositions in New Zealand

and British English. Based on corpora data from the three varieties, the

author provides usage types analysis of the prepositions at, in and on.

The analysis exploits cognitive approaches to prepositional polysemy and

gives a motivated account of prepositional variations across varieties. The

book offers a wealth of corpus based linguistic data and explanation to

our understanding of variations in prepositional usage in different varie-

ties of English. The distributional frequencies of various usage types are

provided to illustrate the variation.

Imran Ho-Abdullah, Ph.D., is an Associate Professor of Linguistics at the

School of Language Studies and Linguistics, Faculty of Social Sciences

and Humanities, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia. He has conducted

extensive research in various aspects of English and Malay linguistics

using corpus methodology and cognitive linguistics framework.
