Attitudes to English in the French Workplace
Year: 2015
Type: dissertation
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: The primary objective of this research is to examine French workers’ attitudes to the use of English as a common corporate language within multinational workplace contexts. Due to a lack of research in this particular domain in France, this thesis aims to investigate the development of certain language attitudes to English in the scope of language-related problems that may arise within multinational companies implanted in France. To this end, the author conducted a combination of theoretical, quantitative and qualitative studies aimed at investigating the variability of French workers’ attitudes to English according to their personal experiences as English learners and users within the French, European and international cultures that co-exist within multinational enterprises.
