SOCIOLINGUISTICS AND THE ESL CLASSROOM PhD Course Assoc.Prof.Dr.Azamat Akbarov

An exploration into the relationship between language and culture Sociolinguistics An exploration into the relationship between language and culture

Fundamental Question What is the relationship between language and culture? b. Humans are the only creature to have culture. c. Humans are the only creature to have language. d. How do the two connect? e. What is language? “what members of a particular society speak”

A dialect continuum, or dialect area, was defined by Leonard Bloomfield as a range of dialects spoken across some geographical area that differ only slightly between neighboring areas, but as one travels in any direction, these differences accumulate such that speakers from opposite ends of the continuum are no longer mutually intelligible.

In sociolinguistics, a language continuum is said to exist when two or more different language or dialects merge one into the other(s) without a definable boundary
