Documento English in Mozambique(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd, 2025) Henriksen, Sarita MonjaneThe privileged position of English in Mozambique should not be underestimated.

Developments in the field of English language teaching are also mentioned. The entry presents photographs from Maputo City, illustrating the growing use, awareness, and visibility of English in the public space, and commercials showing how English words and neologisms are being used in everyday Mozambican Portuguese, revealing the creative, innovative, dynamic, and vibrant nature of language practices in this multilingual setting.
