语言研究院、中国外语战略研究中心成立十周年庆祝活动
语言与社会工作坊 第73期
This talk aims to familiarize students with the key concepts of sociolinguistics with a focus on the Labovian variation theory and variable rule analysis (VARBRUL) as applied to the analysis of natural language data gathered in a range of linguistic and social contexts. Among the concepts to be addressed are variationist sociolinguistics, variable, variation, and variant, speech community, and the vernacular. Emphasis will be placed on key issues such as identifying variables, circumscribing the variable context, extracting, coding and analyzing data and examining social and linguistic factors that condition linguistic variation. It is hoped that students are able to apply the insights gleaned in this talk to an original study of a linguistic variable of their choice.
