30 Examples of Sociolect

A sociolect It is a linguistic variety that is used by people who belong to the same social group. For instance: In the statement "the car broke down", the term "car" is a variant that belongs to a sociolect, because it is a word that is only used by certain social groups and is not used by all speakers of the Spanish.

Linguistic varieties are different forms of vocabulary, pronunciation, intonation and of syntax that exist within the same language and that uses a certain community of speakers.

These varieties are classified according to age (chronolect), place (dialect) and the social group (sociolect) of people.

The social group of a sociolect is determined taking into account certain characteristics of the people who make up the group, such as social class, educational level achieved, work or cultural activities and belonging to certain communities.

For this reason, it is estimated that, for example, a doctor will not use the same variants as a student of high school, since the doctor and the student belong to different social groups with characteristics specific.
