Sociology is the study of human social relationships
and institutions. Is an exciting and illuminating field
of study that analyzes and explains important
matters in our personal lives, our communities, and
the world. At the personal level, sociology
investigates the social causes and consequences of
such things as romantic love, racial and gender
identity, family conflict, deviant behavior, aging, and
religious faith.

Is the systematic study of the structure
and evolution of human language, and it
is applicable to every aspect of human
endeavor.
Linguistics is the scientific study of
human language, meaning that it is a
comprehensive, systematic, objective, and
precise study of language.
The scientific study of language and its
structure, including the study of
morphology, syntax, phonetics, and
semantics. Specific branches of linguistics
include sociolinguistics, dialectology,
psycholinguistics, computational linguistics,
historical-comparative linguistics, and
applied linguistics.
The study of language about social
factors, including differences of regional,
class, and occupational dialect, gender
differences, and bilingualism.
WHAT IS
SOCIOLINGUISTICS?
The study of the sociological aspects of
language. The discipline concerns itself
with the part language plays in maintaining
the social roles in a community.
Its objective is to identify and try to explain
processes of linguistic change within the
different groups of society. Approaches
language in its context of social use.
HOW IS LANGUAGE
SHAPED BY SOCIETY?
Social context will think about variety
within a language. Everybody who
speaks a language has a very wide
linguistic repertoire unless they have
very severe learning difficulties, or are
learning the language as a foreign
language. This means, they can use
language in many different ways,
depending on the situation they are in.
The sort of language that they use
also depends on their social background
and social identity.
Social context looks at relationships
between language and society and looks
at language as people use it. It considers
the relationship between a person’s
language and their social identity.
WHY DO WE SAY THE
SAME THING IN SO
MANY DIFFERENT
WAYS?
We say the same
thing in different
ways so that those
who don't
understand us in the
first iteration of our
words might
eventually get the
message we are
trying to impart.
WHY DO YOU HAVE TO CHANGE YOUR
LINGUISTIC REPERTOIRE AT HOME, WITH
YOUR FRIENDS, WITH THE PRINCIPAL WITH
YOUR COUPLE?
Education should provide a varied language
repertoire and an understanding of which
languages we should learn for what
purpose.
Also, with each different people, we have a
different relationship and the respect or
the confidente is specific with each one,
and the way you talk with them or the
way your express.
