摘要This paper examines coronal stop deletion (CSD), the deletion of word-final /- t, -d/ in consonant clusters, in three new varieties of Asian English: China English, Hong Kong English, and Viet Nam English. The study seeks to determine to which extent the linguistic and extralinguistic constraints found to govern CSD in other varieties of English also impact CSD in emerging Englishes such as those examined in the current study. A total of 6http://aims.cuhk.edu.hk/converis/portal/Publication/0 tertiary students, 2http://aims.cuhk.edu.hk/converis/portal/Publication/0 from each variety of English, participated in the study. Results indicate that, while new Englishes such as China English, Hong Kong English, and Viet Nam English are affected by constraints such as linguistic environment and morphological conditioning, the proficiency level of speakers impacts CSD rates and the effects of the various constraints.
