LOTE or Languages Other Than English is the name given to language subjects besides English in Australia, New York City, and other[vague] schools. The name evolved from 'heritage language', a term first used to refer to languages other than French and English in Canada. Later modified in relation to Australia to refer to languages other than English.[1] LOTEs have often historically been related to the policy of multiculturalism, and tend to reflect the predominant non-English languages spoken in a school's local area, the idea being to play a part in the maintenance of cultural identities in local communities.[citation needed]
LOTE is also used to describe written material presented in languages other than English.[2]
