China English 具有中國特點的英語

1980年，葛傳椝先生就提出了“中國英語”的概唸。他說：“在舊中國和新中國，講或寫英語時都有些我國所特有的東西要表達。如科擧（imperial examinations）、翰林院（Hanlinyuan 或 Imperial Academy）、五四運動（May Fourth Movement）、賽先生（Mr. Science）、德先生（Mr. Democracy）、白話文（baihua wen 或 baihua）這些不屬於講英語民族的人所慣用的詞語，應儅稱作 ChinaEnglish.”這個提法肯定了中國英語現象。

1991年，汪榕培先生將“中國英語”定義爲“它是中國人在中國本土上使用的、以標準英語爲核心、具有中國特點的英語”。
