内容简介

    What is comparative sociolinguistics? How is it different from sociolinguistics? This talk tries to answer these questions. It first introduces the concept of comparative sociolinguistics, its origin, its methodology, and its significance for sociolinguistic research. It will look into three types studies of comparative sociolinguistic studies. The first is a comparative study of variations within the same language among different socioeconomic status. The second is a comparative study of a language contact situation where two generations of learners of English adopted different strategies, resulting in different phenomena in variations in the target language. The third is a comparative study of three different types of variations in language contact and its significance beyond sociolinguistics.  In conclusion, this talk demonstrates the significance of theoretical conceptual frameworks in sociolinguistic research.
