Jamaican English which includes Jamaican Standard English is a variety of English spoken in Jamaica. It resembles parts of both British English and American English dialects, along with many aspects of Irish intonation. Typically, it uses the same spellings as found in British English.〔Andrea Sand (1999), ''Linguistic Variation in Jamaica. A Corpus-Based Study of Radio and Newspaper Usage'', Tübingen: Narr,.〕 Although the distinction between the two is best described as a continuum rather than a solid line,〔Peter L. Patrick (1999), ''Urban Jamaican Creole. Variation in the Mesolect''. Amsterdam/Philadelphia: Benjamins.〕 it is not to be confused with Jamaican Patois, also known as Jamaican or Jamaican Creole. ==Sociolinguistics== Jamaican Standard English is a variety of International Standard English (see English English). Since the mid-20th century, Jamaica has increasingly developed stronger social and economic ties with the United States and the increasing popularity of U.S. cultural offerings, including film, music, and televised dramas and comedies, exposure to American English has been increasing steadily.
