Abstract

Different groups of English-speaking population were interviewed. They discuss current situation with variability of English. Speakers of English can shift dialects according to social and cultural context. Some contexts imply the use of Standard English, others - dialects. The interviewed accept freedom of expression but they make judgments of those who misuse English.
