People from varying regions and backgrounds have different ways of saying the same thing. For example, in English some people say "test," while others say "tes'," dropping the final "t." Noted scholars Ceil Lucas, Robert Bayley, and Clayton Valli led a team of exceptional researchers in applying techniques for analyzing spoken language variation to ASL. Their observations at the phonological, lexical, morphological, and syntactic levels demonstrate that ASL variation correlates with many of the same driving social factors of spoken languages, including age, socioeconomic class, gender, ethnic background, region, and sexual orientation. Internal constraints that mandate variant choices for spoken languages have been compared to ASL as well, with intriguing results. 410 0$aSociolinguistics in deaf communities series ;$vv. 7. 606 $aAmerican Sign Language$xSocial aspects 606 $aSociolinguistics 615 0$aAmerican Sign Language$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aSociolinguistics. 676 $a420.07 700 $aLucas$b Ceil$0174959 701 $aValli$b Clayton$01791991 701 $aRose$b Mary$01791992 701 $aBayley$b Robert$f1943-$01732485 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910958326003321 996 $aSociolinguistic variation in American sign language$94329842 997 $aUNINA
