The chapters present a range of frameworks and methodologies used in sociolinguistics and apply them to the Welsh linguistic context. This context is very distinctive compared to the rest of the UK and represents a prime ground to observe different aspects of the interplay between language and society. The structure of the volume reflects the linguistic diversity of the country and is divided into three sections. The first section examines recent research on Welsh, the second section focuses on English, and the third section deals with research on Welsh and English together, as well as research on other languages spoken in Wales. The book will be useful to those wanting to discover more about language and society in Wales, as well as to those already working in the field as it offers new perspectives and insights.SociolinguisticsLanguage policyLinguistic changePhonologyDiscourse analysisSyntaxSociolinguisticshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/N44000Language Policy and Planninghttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/N64000Language Changehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/N62000Phonology and Phoneticshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/N34000Discourse Analysishttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/N51000Syntaxhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/N45000Sociolinguistics.Language policy.Linguistic change.Phonology.Discourse analysis.Syntax.Sociolinguistics.Language Policy and Planning.Language Change.Phonology and Phonetics.Discourse Analysis.Syntax.491.66Durham Mercedesedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMorris Jonathanedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910162661303321Sociolinguistics in Wales2524233UNINA
