Sociolinguistics

1. What is the relationship between society and language?

Society is a group of people that within a comunity keep comunication each other; and language is the way which people in a society can comunicate.

2. If we talk about the same language, why do you think it varies from one place to another?

Maybe because every city in our country has different cultures and environments so, people change the vocabulary, its pronunciation and the utterance.

3. Besides the place, what other things do you think affects the way we speak?

I think every place has different context and specific culture in the society. Maybe it is because of that.

4. What is the difference between accent and dialect.

Accent: Is the way of pronunciation by a speaker with shared characteristic of a certain locality within the comunity.

Dialect: It refers to a variety of a language that is a characteristic of a particular group of the language´s speakers. It comes from regional speech patterns, but also is related to the social class.
