Description
The Dictionary of Caribbean English Usage: School Edition is intended to be used by secondary schoolchildren of the Caribbean region ages 11 to 18 and by their teachers. Its main objective is to be an educational tool for the children of the region by promoting a strong sense of Caribbean identity and pride in the young population, and to ensure that their teachers will be able to learn more about themselves, their language, history and culture and to impart such knowledge to their students with confidence.

The content is presented thematically, under topics such as Fauna, Flora, Foods, Music, Musical Instruments and Dance, Religion, Festivals, and Folklore. The four appendices demonstrate what dictionary skills are and the process of how to acquire them. The publication is the first of its kind and is a landmark in Caribbean lexicography.
