In vocabulary there are a lot of US influences: Canadians use billboard, gas, truck and wrench rather than hoarding, petrol, lorry, and spanner；but on the other hand, they agree with the British in saying blinds, braces, porridge, and tap rather than shades, suspenders, oatmeal, and faucet. South African EnglishSince 1994 South Africa has had eleven official languages: English, Afikaans（having developed from Dutch）, Zulu, Xhosa and other largely regional African languages. English is the first language of only about 10 percent of the population, but the second language of many others. The English of native Afrikaners has influenced the “standard” English of white South Africans, examples being such informal usages as the affirmative（肯定的） no, as in“How are you? No, Im fine” and the allpurpose response is it, as in “She had a baby last week, is it? ”Indian EnglishTogether with Hindi, English is used across India, but it can also be a speakers first, second, or third language. The grammar of Indian English has many distinguishing features, of which perhaps the best known are the use of the present continuous tense, as in “He is having very much of property”, and the use of “isnt it” as an ordinary question tag, “We are meeting tomorrow, isnt it? ”The first example shows another characteristic of the language, which is using in or of in idiomatic phrases. Verbs are also used differently, with speakers often dropping a preposition or object altogether, “I insisted immediate payment”, while double possessives（所有格）“our these prices” （instead of the British English “these prices of ours”）are common. 1What does the underlined word “distinguishing” mean in Paragraph 3?
