TOPIC: SOCIAL AND TERRITORIAL DIFFERENTIATION OF VOCABULARY
Аннотация
The study of language and its usage has long captivated researchers, revealing
insights into human communication and societal dynamics. A significant area of focus
within this field is the social and territorial differentiation of vocabulary. This
phenomenon explores how language usage varies among diverse social groups and
geographical regions, illuminating the complex relationship between language,
identity, and social structures.
The social and territorial differentiation of vocabulary encompasses the distinct
linguistic patterns and word choices observed within specific social communities and
geographic areas. Language is not a fixed entity; it evolves and adapts to the needs and
experiences of its speakers. Consequently, individuals belonging to different social
groups, such as various age groups, ethnicities, socioeconomic backgrounds, or
professions, develop unique sets of vocabulary that reflect their shared experiences,
values, and cultural practices.
