This document discusses social dialects and how they differ from regional dialects. It defines dialect as a variety of a language that signals where a person comes from and is influenced by their social background. Social dialect, also called sociolinguistics, refers to variations in language based on social factors like ethnicity, gender, age, and social class. Regional dialect depends more on the geographical area where a language is spoken. While both reflect social variations in language use, social dialects are influenced more by social barriers between groups rather than geographical distance.

This document discusses language attitudes and related concepts. It defines language attitude as inferences about people based on how they speak. People have attitudes toward their own and other languages. Attitudes are demonstrated through behavior. The document also discusses semantics shift, derogation, linguistic relativism, perceptual dialectology, social identity theory, and communication accommodation theory as they relate to language attitudes. It provides examples to illustrate key concepts.Introduction to sociolinguistics

1) Sociolinguistics is the study of the relationship between language and society. It examines how social factors such as context, status, and function influence language variation and use.
2) People code switch and use different linguistic varieties depending on social context, including the participants, setting, topic, and function of the interaction. Formal contexts like religion or education use high varieties while informal settings use low varieties.
3) Languages shift when their speakers abandon them for a dominant language due to economic, social, or demographic factors. This can lead to language loss or even death when no one speaks it anymore.SOCIAL DIALECT

This document discusses sociolinguistics and the varieties of language. It defines sociolinguistics as the study of language in relation to society, including how social aspects influence language use and how language impacts society. It then discusses that there is no single set of rules for a language like English, and that language varies between individuals and social groups. Specifically, it outlines that language exists in idiolects unique to individuals, dialects specific to regions, registers for certain purposes, diglossia where separate varieties are used in formal vs informal contexts, and sociolects associated with social groups.SOCIOLINGUISTIC about LANGUAGE AND CULTURE
SOCIOLINGUISTIC about LANGUAGE AND CULTUREAnisa Asharie

The document discusses the relationship between language and culture in three main points:
1) Language is closely tied to the culture of its speech community, as a community's culture consists of what members have to know to operate acceptably.
2) While communities can share similar cultures but different languages, the close relationship between language and culture has long been studied. A language reflects the values of its speakers' culture.
3) Approaching foreign language teaching with an understanding of the target culture can help address issues of misunderstanding that may arise from cultural differences in word meanings.Social variation (SLT)

This document discusses social variation in language, focusing on African American Vernacular English (AAVE). It covers the following key points:
1) AAVE has distinct phonological and grammatical features that developed from its creole origins and divergence over time from other English dialects.
2) Teachers often have negative attitudes toward students who speak AAVE, which can negatively impact these students' academic performance. Understanding students' and communities' attitudes toward AAVE is important for teaching.
3) Recognizing AAVE as a valid dialect that developed naturally, rather than from ignorance, can help teachers incorporate the dialect into their language arts pedagogy through exercises like translation drills between AAVE and standard English.Language and ethnic group

1) Language is closely intertwined with ethnic identity and group membership. Members of ethnic groups often learn the linguistic varieties associated with that group.
2) In the United States, differences exist between the English spoken by white and black Americans, and ethnicity can often be identified based on language alone. However, these linguistic differences result from learned behavior within communities rather than innate qualities.
3) The situation in former Yugoslavia demonstrates how ethnic identities and linguistic varieties can change over time and in response to political situations. Serbo-Croatian was once considered a single language but is now considered separate Serbian and Croatian languages.Language Loss

This document discusses language loss in bilingual children and strategies to promote balanced bilingualism. It notes that language loss occurs when a minority language is no longer used proficiently due to increased exposure to a dominant language like English. This can lead to incomplete learning or forgetting of the home language over time. The document recommends that teachers recognize this as a temporary developmental phase and that families provide opportunities to use and maintain the home language through exposure to speakers and social contexts that support both languages.Language Planning

Communication Accommodation Theory (CAT) proposes that people change their speech patterns, vocal characteristics, and gestures when communicating with others in order to be better understood. Developed by Howard Giles in 1973, CAT suggests that speakers may converge their speech towards another person's patterns or diverge from them. Convergence can occur downward from higher to lower social classes, upward from lower to higher classes, or mutually as both speakers adjust towards each other. The goal of accommodation is effective communication across differences in language, age, or other barriers.language and social variation

This document discusses language variation based on social factors. It covers the topics of sociolinguistics, social dialects, education and occupation, social markers, and speech style/style-shifting. Sociolinguistics examines the relationship between language and society, investigating how languages function in communication and the structure of language. Social dialects, or sociolects, are language varieties that differ based on a speaker's social status or group, such as social class, religion, or ethnicity. Features like pronunciation, vocabulary, and grammar are used to analyze social dialects. Education level and occupation also influence one's speech patterns and style.Language and Gender by Muhammad Ahmad

Language varieties refer to different forms of a language influenced by social factors such as situation, occupation, age, geography, education, gender, social status, and ethnicity. There are several types of language varieties including dialects, registers, pidgins, and creoles. A dialect is a variety of a language used in a specific region or social class. Registers are varieties used in different situations based on formality. A pidgin is a simplified mixed language with reduced vocabulary and grammar used for communication between speakers of different languages, while a creole develops when a pidgin becomes the primary language of a group and acquires more complex grammar.Language and social variation

This document discusses sociolinguistic concepts related to language variation, including:
- Varieties include languages, dialects, accents, registers, and styles of a language. Variation occurs at the lexical level through slang and levels of formality.
- Dialects are regional or social varieties of a language characterized by their own phonological, syntactic, and lexical properties. They can also be associated with ethnic groups or socioeconomic classes.
- Registers or styles are varieties of language used in particular social settings defined by levels of formality or social events like baby talk.
- An idiolect is the unique language use of an individual person influenced by various dialects, registers, and languagesSpeech Communities

The document discusses key concepts relating to speech communities. It defines a speech community as a group of people who interact through shared use of language and participation in common norms. While some definitions require all members to use the same language or dialect, most acknowledge that communities can be multilingual. Characteristics like shared social networks, values and beliefs help define communities more than sole reliance on linguistic criteria. Urban areas in particular may contain overlapping and intersecting speech communities with blurred boundaries.Full summary an_introduction_to_sociolinguistics

Sociolinguistics is the study of how social factors such as ethnicity, gender, age, and socioeconomic class influence language. It examines how language differs between social groups and how these differences can categorize individuals. Sociolinguists study how grammar, vocabulary, and other language aspects vary depending on social context, in contrast to dialectology which focuses on language's effect on society. Key concepts in sociolinguistics include speech communities, prestige varieties, social networks, and differences in language according to class, age, gender, geography, and politeness.Dialectology

This document discusses the topic of dialectology, which is the scientific study of linguistic dialects. It defines dialect as a specific form of a language that is peculiar to a certain region or social group. Dialectology studies variations in language based on geographic distribution and associated features. To distinguish between dialects of the same language, speakers must be able to understand each other. The document outlines levels of dialect analysis including geography, ethnicity, and social class. It also discusses the need to study dialects from both linguistic and social perspectives.Gander and age

This document discusses gender and age related differences in speech. It notes that while women and men share a language, there are often small differences in features like pronunciation or morphology. Research has shown women tend to use more standard forms while men use more vernacular forms. Social class also influences speech, with women across classes using more standard forms than men. The document explores various explanations for why women's speech patterns differ, and discusses how age can influence language use, with vernacular forms highest in youth and old age when social pressures are lower.Sapir and Whorf

It presents the key figures and their backgrounds, including Sapir's work in linguistics and Whorf's study of the Hopi language. The hypothesis is introduced as having both a strong version, that language determines thought, and a weak version, that language influences thought. While heavily criticized, most linguists now accept the weak version to some degree. Examples are given of how language can reflect cultural differences in areas like kinship terminology. The conclusion is that while the extreme versions have been disproven, most agree there is some influence of language on thought.Teaching of Vocabulary

Language can be defined as a system of arbitrary vocal symbols used by a social group to communicate and express ideas, identities, and emotions. There are many variations within and across languages, including dialects, registers, sociolects, and ethnolects that vary by region, social group, ethnicity, gender, and even individual. Some key types of linguistic variations include dialects, which can differ in vocabulary, grammar and pronunciation depending on geography; sociolects, which vary based on social factors like education and class; and idiolects, an individual's unique way of speaking. Languages exist on spectrums and can be classified based on various social and historical contexts.Language, dialect and accent

This document discusses the nature of language, dialect, and accent. It defines language and dialect, noting that dialects are varieties of a language that are mutually intelligible. Dialects differ based on region or social factors rather than linguistic ones. Accent refers to differences in pronunciation between varieties. Dialect continuum is used to show how dialects gradually change between geographic areas. Linguistic variables are linguistic items that have variant forms based on non-linguistic factors like age, status, or situation.English language teaching

Dialects refer to regional variations in vocabulary and grammar within a language, whereas accents refer to differences in pronunciation influenced by an individual's mother tongue. A dialect is influenced more by historical factors and is specific to a region, while an accent is specific to an individual. In language teaching, a learner's dialect can pose barriers that teachers aim to help students overcome to acquire the target language, while accents develop later once basic communication is established.6.

Sociolinguistic analysis uses methods like ethnography, variationist analysis, and discourse analysis to study language variation and how it relates to power dynamics in society.Standard language.

This document provides an outline and overview of sociolinguistics concepts related to standard language and dialects. It discusses how a standard language is selected and codified through processes like selection, codification, elaboration of functions, and acceptance. It notes that a standard language gains prestige and becomes a symbol of independence. The document also explores the differences between dialects and languages, noting they are ambiguous terms without universal criteria. Dialects can be regional, relating to a geographical area, or social, relating to factors like class, religion, occupation.Language in social context revised 2012

There are four main types of speech varieties: standard languages, social dialects, regional varieties, and registers. Standard languages are promoted varieties, while social dialects are defined by social attributes. Regional varieties are defined geographically and registers are defined by social context or situation. The document also discusses social differentiation of language and how socioeconomic status can correlate with differences in language use.Basic notions; language variation and levels

This document discusses various types of language variation including dialects, sociolects, idiolects, registers, pidgins, and creoles. It notes that dialects are varieties of a language used by a particular group that share non-linguistic characteristics.
