“…In communications, the more standard your English is, the easier that your English is understood. (Cogo & Dewey, 2012;Liang & Li, 2017;Pitzl, 2017), this study, as well as many others, has consistently reported bias against the intelligibility of 'non-native' varieties of English (Chan, 2018;He & Zhang, 2010;Jenkins, 2007;McKenzie, 2008;Ren, Chen, & Lin, 2016;Wang, 2013;Wang & Jenkins, 2016).
