Abstract:

Basic Concepts in Sociolinguistics
Book I: Introduction

Basic Concepts in Sociolinguistics is a book series that will introduce
learners to the basic concepts of sociolinguistics. The series consists of
three books. Book I will introduce the learners to sociolinguistic variation.
It will discuss the motivation for language variation and the different
linguistic levels at which variation occurs, that is, lexical, phonological,
morphological, and syntactic. Book II will discuss the linguistic outcomes of
multilingualism and language contact. It will introduce the concept of a
linguistic repertoire and the functional distribution of varieties in the
repertoire. It will also introduce the concepts of code-switching, pidgins,
creoles, diglossia, and language shift. Book III will look at the social
correlates of language variation, such as social class, gender, networks, and
communities of practice (CosP). It will also introduce linguistic politeness
and ethnolinguistic vitality. 
The book series includes: Illustrations and graphics that will enable the
learners to understand the concepts easily and through multiple examples,
exercises after every section, explanation of the keywords, a theme-based
division of the three-volume series, a jargon-free discussion of concepts and
themes, topics that can be easily understood by beginners.
Some of the topics discussed in the series, which are also key terms, are
sociolinguistic variation, lexical variation, phonological variation,
morphological variation, syntactic variation, language choice, vitality,
regional dialect, social dialect, politeness, diglossia, shift,
code-switching, pidgin, and creole.
This is a zero-level course that is meant for learners without any background
in linguistics and/or sociolinguistics.
