摘要：

This article presents a case study of six Polish migrants residing in Dublin, Ireland and examines their language ideologies through an analysis of the metalinguistic discourse surrounding Irish English, world Englishes, and notions of standardness' that arose in the course of six extended interviews in 2012. Adapting Bucholtz and Hall's concept of markedness or hierarchical structuring of difference', this study structures the migrants' views towards world Englishes as operating along two axes of markedness and desirability. Overall, the migrants exhibit three broadly differing views of Irish English: positive, negative and ambivalent, and at times explicitly articulate their views in comparison with those of traditional Inner Circle varieties, such as British and American English.
