Intro to Sociolinguistics
Acquisition planning is the systematic process of determining the needs for language resources and strategies necessary for the development, promotion, and maintenance of a language within a specific context. This planning involves considering factors like sociolinguistic dynamics, power relations, and community needs to ensure that the intended language policies effectively support language use in society. By addressing issues of language and power, acquisition planning can help reinforce or challenge existing social hierarchies and inequalities.
