“That ossified cake-eater over there with the cheaters on thinks his applesauce will land him a date."

Define What is dialect? Give examples

Dialect refers to differences in accent, grammar and vocabulary among different versions of a language

2 FACTS ABOUT LANGUAGE 1) that language changes over time, and 2) that language use is linked to social identity.

Standard English vs other dialects

Negative views of dialect Appalachian English (e.g., "She went a- hunting") African American Vernacular English (e.g., "Tuesdays, we be bowling") Southern vowel merger (e.g., pronouncing pin and pen the same)

A SOUTHERN VOWEL PRONUNCIATION In some Southern dialects of English, words like pin and pen are pronounced the same. Usually, both words are pronounced as pin. The following is a list of words in which the i and e would be pronounced the SAME in these dialects. A. 1. tin and ten 2. kin and Ken 3. Lin and Len 4. tinder and tender 5. sinned and send
