REVIEWED: "Language Variation, Its Types and What Factors Can Reflect on Them"
The article "Language Variation, Its Types and What Factors Can Reflect on Them" by Turdijanova Zarina Zaynitdinovna provides an insightful examination of linguistic variations, their types, and the factors influencing them. The study primarily focuses on the research conducted by William Labov, highlighting his investigations on Martha’s Vineyard Island and in New York department stores.
Summary:
The article begins with an overview of language variation, defining it as the form of language differences within a specific language due to social, regional, and contextual factors. Key linguistic aspects such as idiolect, dialect, and communicative isolation are thoroughly discussed.
Methodology:
Turdijanova reviews Labov’s methodological approach, which includes the use of interviews, observations, and phonological analysis to study linguistic variations. Labov's research methods are praised for their effectiveness in capturing real-life language use and social stratification influences on language.
Key Findings:
Idiolect and Dialect:
- Idiolect is defined as the unique language use by an individual, shaped by personal and social experiences.
- Dialect, in contrast, is a variation of language used by a group of people. The article emphasizes that both idiolect and dialect are crucial in understanding language variation.
Communicative Isolation:
- The role of geographical and social isolation in language development is highlighted, with examples such as the Nihali language in India.
Labov's Studies:
- Labov's findings on Martha’s Vineyard reveal significant phonological changes influenced by social and ethnic diversity.
- In New York, Labov’s analysis of postvocalic /r/ in department stores shows how social class affects language use.
Analysis and Discussion:
The article effectively compares the two studies, noting similarities in the diverse participant groups and differences in geographical settings. Turdijanova underscores the importance of social factors in language variation and how Labov’s work has paved the way for further sociolinguistic research.
Conclusion:
Overall, the article by Turdijanova Zarina Zaynitdinovna provides a comprehensive analysis of language variation and the factors influencing it. The discussion of Labov's studies adds depth to the understanding of sociolinguistic patterns. This work is valuable for linguists, educators, and researchers interested in language variation and sociolinguistics.
