Nigerian English
Inglese nigeriano
Germanica
L'inglese nigeriano (codice regionale en-NG) è una varietà nazionale istituzionalizzata usata nella società fortemente multilingue della Nigeria. L'inglese è la lingua principale del governo federale, del potere legislativo, dell'istruzione superiore, dei media nazionali e di gran parte della comunicazione interetnica, sebbene la Costituzione non lo dichiari semplicemente l'unica lingua ufficiale. Storicamente basato sull'inglese britannico, è stato plasmato dal contatto con hausa, yoruba, igbo e molte altre lingue, producendo una notevole variazione regionale e sociale. Tendenze di pronuncia diffuse sono la riduzione dei contrasti di lunghezza vocalica, la monottongazione di alcuni dittonghi, la sostituzione di /θ/ e /ð/, la minore riduzione delle vocali atone e un ritmo più uniforme; anche lessico, grammatica e discorso comprendono nigerianismi consolidati. Va distinto dal pidgin nigeriano, o Naijá, una lingua separata a lessico inglese con grammatica e funzioni sociali proprie.
