Linguistic diversity of the Arab world presents diglossic features of Modern Standard Arabic and dialects. This research is focused on the interference of linguistic varieties related to rural and urban society. The language of urban centers in majority of Arabic countries is related with prestige and prosperity. Bidialectal switch between language codes is resulted by such criteria as migration, age, gender and education level. Big urban centers provide many institutions, which are attractive for citizens from rural areas, willing to develop educational level or good job opportunities. Nevertheless, main issue refers to the problem of social identity and its impact on the language change. Distinct community division of Arabic countries (tribal) makes dialectal diversity more complex.

Based on a critical review of previous work, this paper shows that prosodic phonology models do not account for all broken plurals in Arabic especially in the case of singular forms comprising two or more different plurals

This paper highlights a difference in the ‘language’ Hindi-Urdu spoken between the areas of Lucknow and New Delhi within India and the Urdu spoken in Lahore in Pakistan. It shows that the claim made in the available literature about the possibility of partially reduplicating or echo-reduplicating the light verb (also called the vector verb) in the compound verb (CV) sequences which have a V(erb)1 + V(erb)2 structure cannot stand a serious scrutiny given that it is not possible for speakers of Hindi-Urdu in regions between Lucknow and Delhi echo-reduplicate the light verb in compound verbs. It is suggested that this difference either does not exist or is anchored in the geographical separation of languages which needs far more serious attention and research than has been given for it has serious implications for issues of what counts as a light verb or an auxiliary in languages in general.

The same way jargon is used, many salespeople have been using argot to secretly talk to each other in the presence of their customers. Specifically, in Tehran the clothing merchants use a secret form of argot known as the Benavi language. This language is mainly the result of the semantics and sound changes in the Jewish language which is spoken by Jews who live in Tehran. Most of the words in the Benavi language are the grammatical adoption of nouns and adjectives, and a few of them are conjugates of the verbs. Numbers in the Benavi language are also borrowed from the Jewish language; some of them are very similar and some are an alteration of the original form, while the numeral and counting systems are innovative and different from the Jewish language.

The aim of this work is to analize the tag question ¿verdad? and the influence of variables sex, age and instruction level in its use in the variant of Mexico City Spanish. Also, we are interested in identifying which functions are more frequent of this particle. Our data belongs to Corpus Sociolingüístico de la Ciudad de México and our analysis is based in a functional theoretical perspective. Results indicate out that variables age and instruction level have a greater influence in tag question frequency, while dialogical functions are more frequent. We conclude that ¿verdad? is characteristic of older men and women with an instruction level low and there is a pattern in mirror because younger men and women with an instruction level high use it less.
这项工作的目的是分析标签问题¿verdad?以及性别、年龄和教学水平等变量对墨西哥城西班牙语变体中其使用的影响。同时,我们感兴趣的是确定这个粒子的哪些功能更频繁。我们的数据属于语料库Sociolingüístico de la Ciudad de m xico,我们的分析基于功能理论视角。结果表明,年龄和教学水平对附加疑问句出现频率的影响较大,而对话功能出现频率较高。我们得出的结论是?是年龄较大的男性和女性的特点,他们的教学水平较低,在镜子中有一个模式,因为年轻的男性和女性的教学水平较高,使用它较少。

When speakers belonging to different language communities come together and attempt to communicate efficiently, they usually need to find a contact language that could lead to the birth of a pidgin language variety. The present study is a sociolinguistic investigation of an English-based pidgin that emerges through work-oriented interaction, necessitating Filipino domestic workers and their Kuwaiti employers to use it to communicate. The study thoroughly investigates the similarities between the variety under investigation and other pidgins using phonological, morphological, syntactic, and lexical diagnostic features. Findings of the study present the English variety used by Kuwaiti households in their communication with Filipino workers as a pidginized English in Kuwait featuring four reported linguistic aspects in pidgin languages: morphological simplifications, syntactic simplifications, lexical simplifications, and functional limitations. The study concludes that such pidginized English is strategically utilized to simplify and ensure efficient language communication between Filipino domestic workers and their Kuwaiti employers.

The paper aims at studying the types, functions and micro-contextual factors of taboo words in the Netflix web series entitled Sacred Games . The researchers employed qualitative method while conducting the sociolinguistic analysis. The videos and their transcripts served as the primary linguistic data, while assorting them into taboo words, phrases, clauses and sentences types. The data was then classified into four categories: epithet, profanity, vulgarity, and obscenity. The functions of the taboo language were divided into four categories: to draw attention to oneself, to show contempt, to be provocative, and to mock authority. Lastly, the taboo language was distributed into four micro-contextual factors that were responsible for characters to use taboo words in the web series, namely participants, purpose of conversation and participant’s attitude, context, and setting in time and place. The conclusion indicates that the obscenity type was the most used one, and ‘to show contempt’ became the primary reason for the characters to use taboo language in the series.

The main aim of this paper is to describe and analyze the name of the diseases that have been registered in the ALPI in the localities of the Catalan-speaking area where the researchers carried out surveys. These places are distributed in five of the six Catalan dialects: Eastern Catalan, Catalan Western, Rossellonès , Valencian and Balearic, with a total of 96 points. From the questionnaire 14 terms have been selected, which correspond to the following questions: 619 “orzuelo” ‘stye’, 620 “lobanillo” ‘ganglion cyst’, 621 “papera” ‘mumps’, 633 “padrastro” ‘hangnail’, 633a “salpullido” ‘rash’, 633b “humor herpético” ‘herpes’, 633c “golondrino” ‘underarm abscess’, 633d “ántrax” ‘boil’, 633e “panadizo” ‘whitlow’, 634a “carbunclo” ‘anthrax’, 635 “sarampión” ‘measles’, 635a “difteria” ‘diphteria’

This research examines the traces of dialectal distribution of Javanese language and its implication for Ciamis-dialect Sundanese language, in West Java Province-Indonesia, from the perspective of geolinguistics. This research uses two sort of approaches: namely theoretical and methodological. The method used in this research is qualitative-descriptive. Meanwhile, the provision of the data was done through the conversation ( cakap ) and observation ( simak ) method. The instrument used in the data collection process is the vocabulary basic list method (Swadesh), which contains the language (the terms) of the system of existing kinship, the pronouns, and the body parts. The data is analyzed by using the comparative-synchronic method. This research was carried out in Ciamis Regency, by choosing five districts as the observation areas which were determined by the wind direction. The research results show that the traces of dialectal distribution of Javanese language in Ciamis Regency, West Java-Indonesia, can be seen from the existence of the same glosses and etymons. The dialectal distribution of Javanese language and its implications for Ciamis-dialect Sundanese language is seen to be consistent on the phonological and lexical aspects.
