Abstract:

This highly engaging textbook presents a linguistic view of the history,
society, and culture of the United States. It discusses the many languages and
forms of language that have been used in the US – including standard and
nonstandard forms of English, creoles, Native American languages, and
immigrant languages from across the globe – and shows how this distribution
and diversity of languages has helped shape and define America as well as an
American identity. The volume introduces the basic concepts of
sociolinguistics and the politics of language through cohesive, up-to-date and
accessible coverage of such key topics as dialectal development and the role
of English as the majority language, controversies concerning language use in
society, languages other than English used in the US, and the policies that
have directly or indirectly influenced language use.
