Sociolinguistics is the study of how language varies and changes in social contexts, focusing on the relationship between language and social factors such as class, ethnicity, gender, and age. This field examines how these social variables influence language use, including dialects, accents, and the impact of language on identity and community dynamics. Understanding sociolinguistics is essential in efforts to promote language diversity and revitalization, especially for endangered languages.
