- Inhalt
- In what respect does language usage depend on social factors such as age, gender and social class? Does a person speak differently in different situations? How can a sociolinguistic approach help us to find out more about language variation and change?
These are some of the questions we will be dealing with in the seminar “sociolinguistics”. The first section of the seminar will be concerned with basic concepts such as dialect and accent, register and style, variation and change, standardisation processes etc. We will discuss the influence of non-linguistic factors such as age, gender, social class and ethnicity on language usage. In this context, we will also take a look at important sociolinguistic studies.
You can – and are required to – design and conduct your own study. The studies can also be conducted in groups. Term papers have to be handed in by Friday, 27th February.
