WHAT IS SOCIOLINGUISTICS ?

 

The definition of sociolinguistics is derived from two specific disciplines:

Linguistics and sociology.

SOCIOLOGY: A study on social structure , social organisations, relationships and social behaviour between and within groups of people.

·         Sociology studies in a wider context regarding groups of individuals in society (family, clan, clans, and nations), how they act and influence each other.

·         Sociologists assume sociology as a single discipline that is not connected to any other disciplines at all and consider that without language, culture may be created.

The study of telephones (phonology), words (morphology) and phrases (syntax) is LINGUISTICS (often called general linguistics, or structural linguistics). It studies discourses (texts) only quite recently.

Assumes linguistics:

·         As a single person, language

·         Language as a Near Device.

·         language as a framework which is homogeneous in its components

Linguists regard language as an abstract entity that can be taken into account without relation to any kind of social concern.

SOCIOLINGUISTICS (often referred to as a practical linguistics, and a cross-disciplinary study) whose concepts were first coined in the 1950s to attempt to put together the views of linguists and sociologists on issues relating to the role of language in society and to discuss the social contexts of linguistic diversity

Sociolinguistics is an area in which the relationship between language and culture is examined, between the use of language and the social systems in which language users reside. It is the area of research that believes that many related patters and behaviors make up human culture, some of which are linguistic (Spolsky, 1998: 3)

Sociolinguistics is a field of research which studies language in relation to speakers and seeks to address the following questions:

What meaning do speakers attribute to certain language features? How do people talk, when they want to look... cool? Wise? Modern? How does their speech depend on the specific language situation, interlocutors and the topic of the conversation? Why and how is language changing?

Sociolinguistics is a field of study that deals mainly with the use of language , particularly spoken language, but not with a language's grammatical or phonetic structure. As a closed framework, sociolinguists do not study a language or linguistic diversity without regard to speech and social life. Sociolinguists stress that the use of language is often variable and heterogeneous — the sociolinguistic language framework.

"Languages and speakers are not divided into" good "and" poor "by sociolinguists. They adopt the so-called principle of differentiation, which states that all linguistic varieties are important (not only traditional languages, but also dialects, urban languages, languages of young people, languages of different social groups).
