Abstract

Language practitioners often seem language phenomena as degeneration or decay.
This is something misleading and need to be taken seriously into consideration. Purists
and prescriptivists should see the phenomena not only from the normative point of
view but also from the science of language itself, which is still forgotten. This article
thus attempts to propose insights from linguistics related to the term good and bad
language, with the focus on good and bad English. Is there any good and bad
language? The answer to the question can only be given at best by elaborating the
linguistics concept. This discussion is of benefit for language learning of which it is
closely related.
Keywords: English, language variation, language change, language learning
