Abstract: The concept of a language variant as a non-native language is considered in the work. With regard to the English language as a language of global distribution, such a variant appears as an exonormative idiom of the Expanding circle, according to B. Kachru's theory of three concentric circles. The variant is based on its linguoculturological substantiation and traces of native language transference, the degree of manifestation of which depends on the type of the lectal level of the bilingual continuum (basilect, mesolect and acrolect). The typification and consistency of linguistic deviations revealed in the mesolect and acrolect speech of the society are the signs of the variant that distinguish it from the interlanguage of the individual.
Key words: Language variant, English as an international language, English as a lingua franca, contact variantology theory, three circles of the English language, lectal levels, distinctive linguistic features, transference, linguocultural basis.
