Abstract
Sociolinguistics is the study of the relationship between language and society. It explores how language is used in different social contexts and how social factors influence the way people speak. Sociolinguistics helps us understand why we speak differently in different situations, how language reflects social structures, and how it can both unite and divide communities.
