| dc.description.abstract | Language is a product of its society. It is unique in nature but shared in application. It is unique in the sense that it gets born in the society with a given speech community as its product, where a child in that speech community has the ability to learn it by birth. It is also shared in application because other people who are non-native to such a given speech community aspire to learn it, and they do so with a certain level of competence, or as argued by linguists, performance. It is the uniqueness and diverse applications of language that the linguistic sub-fields such as sociolinguistics set out to investigate. This paper thereby attempts a conceptual exploration of the given terms in the title | en_US |
