Globalization is the cause of the emergence of world Englishes and Nenglish. Along with the emergence of world Englishes, Nenglish has also gained its space in Nepal and Nepali diaspora. This research paper is based on phenomenological research design. The primary sources of data were collected through interviews from two participants. Secondary sources were also studied for theoretical literature. The findings include the lexical, morphological, syntactic, phonological and semantic features of Nenglish. It also includes the existence and status of Nenglish in Nepali diaspora, features of Nenglish, and the practices for its promotion as the major themes.

First, in the section "A Historical Overview of Listening Comprehension Studies," the changes that listening comprehension has undergone in the past few decades will be observed. Listening comprehension has long been regarded as a passive skill, and researchers considered it an ability that would develop without assistance. Around 1970, listening comprehension began to attract much attention and started to be explored. Some points have been revealed while others have remained unrevealed during the past thirty years. Then in the section "Components of Listening Comprehension," the basic difference between written language and spoken language will be observed. It is important to note that the type of medium-sound versus print-will generate a wide range of input styles in spoken and written language (see the section "Features of spoken language"). In addition, the difference between written and spoken language comprehension will be discussed so that we can understand that listening comprehension imposes upon learners a different cognitive load from that of reading comprehension (see the section "Differences between listening and reading comprehension"). Furthermore, seven conceivable causes of obstacles to efficient listening comprehension will be identified (see the section "Potential problems in learning to listen to English").
