Title: | Second dialect acquisition | Contributor(s): | Siegel, Jeff (author) | Publication Date: | 2012 | Handle Link: | https://hdl.handle.net/1959.11/14212 | Abstract: | Second dialect acquisition (SDA) refers to the learning of another dialect of a language as opposed to learning a separate language. Dialects are defined here as varieties that speakers perceive as belonging to the same language. One dialect differs from another in vocabulary, pronunciation and/or morphosyntax, and in its association with a particular geographic region or social group. SDA is concerned mainly with three broad types of dialects: (1) national dialects such as Canadian and Australian English and Mexican and European Spanish; (2) regional dialects such as Yorkshire and Liverpool English in England, and Swabian and Bavarian in Germany; and (3) ethnic dialects such as Aboriginal English in Australia and African American English and Chicano Spanish in the USA. | Publication Type: | Entry In Reference Work | Source of Publication: | The Routledge Encyclopedia of Second Language Acquisition, p. 568-571 | Publisher: | Routledge | Place of Publication: | New York, United States of America | ISBN: | 9780203135945 9780415877510 |
