Class Description:
When you talk, you give out clues about who you are and where you come from. Sociolinguists have found that patterns of language use are affected by age, gender, socioeconomic status, ethnicity, and other aspects of people and situations. This course reflects on the relationship between language and such social variables. We will also examine multilingual situations such contact between speakers of different languages, and their implications for language loss and language change. Implications of sociolinguistic findings for educators will also be discussed.
