AB - <table><tbody><tr><td><p>This study analyses the language appropriation strategies identified by Ashcroft, Griffiths, & Tiffin (1989) employed in Shehryar Fazli’s novel Invitation (2011). The study evaluates the language appropriation tactics and strategies employed in the discourse to portray the native culture effectively and with more authenticity. The strategies include glossing, untranslated words, syntactic fusion, and code switching. The data collection process for this qualitative study involves using content analysis method. Thus, this study examines the effective role of language to resist against the colonizers under the realm of postcolonial studies in the novel Invitation.</p><p><strong>Keywords:</strong> Appropriation, Language, Postcolonial, Resistance</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p>
