Abstract

This paper is a brief reflection on the spread of English around the world. Because of this, this language has changed. With so many people learning English, national identities have converged to change this language, making it the world language. Its objective is to advocate an epistemology of deforeignization of this language, based on the assumption that many people have recreated it naturally, in lexical, grammatical and phonological terms. ‘To deforeignize’ the English language, it is necessary to allow the recreation of this language, so that it can be adapted to the learners’ linguistic and cultural patterns. For this purpose, some data are shared. The relavance of this study lies is the possibility to shed light in a topic which still needs to be reflected, mainly because it can support the understanding of how the teaching and learning process of English should be conducted in front of its current status.

Abstract

This paper is about the teaching of English. It takes into account the global role this language gains today, to reflect on how it should be taught. The main objective of it is to defend a current tendency concerning the teaching of English. In the pursuit of an appropriate pedagogy to teach English, I propose the focus on non-native speaker, since we undestand that English is a world language, spoken by a great number of people, from different cultures, what has recreated this language in many aspects. That is why this language should not be only taught based on the hegemonic cultures. The reflection proposed here is, especially, anchored on Freire´s (1996) ideas on education, mainly when he defends learner’s autonomy. Thus, to teach English through an apropriate pedagogy, teachers should allow students to have ownership of it as well, but starting from a local perspective, avoiding, this way, bad feelings on the part of students.
