LINGUISTIC
Sociolinguistics CourseProf Necdet Osam
 
All the worldis a stage,and we areplayers!
 
 
As you will see using language involves
costs
and
benefits
in what Holmes(1992) refers to as “
linguisticmarket
”. It also involves
role-playing
,
forging identity
,
power-sharing
,alternating
converging
and
diverging
 strategies,
power
and
solidarity
,which, all in all, signify that “language isa behavior” or, better said, “language isan act.”
