Abstract:

Interactive Sociolinguistics

Smita Joseph
The English and Foreign Languages University, Hyderabad, India 

Interactive Sociolinguistics is meant for young researchers of humanities and
social sciences and, especially, for those who are specializing in the area of
linguistics and sociolinguistics. Students with a basic to mid-level
background in linguistics can also form an audience. The book is novel in its
approach because it criticizes some key concepts like the notion of dialects
given by Chambers and Trudgill (2004). The book includes:
• An exercise after every chapter,
• Samples of students’ assignments,
• Strategies to develop research questions, 
• Topics in sociolinguistics that are illustrated through case studies and
examples,
• Strategies to write concise summaries and literature reviews in
sociolinguistics,
• Strategies to avoid plagiarism in research,
• Strategies to develop questionnaires, 
• A chapter on writing dissertations, and
• Bad examples of writing literature reviews and summaries.
The textbook discusses the following terms, which are also the key terms:
dialect, dialect geography, social class, caste, research questions, language
change, literature review, dissertations, theses, summary writing, data
analysis, questionnaire, synchronic and diachronic linguistics, generational
change, lifespan change, age-graded variation, direct and indirect elicitation
frames, display map, semi-foreign language, mutual intelligibility, and
dialect myths.
