Dialect, Accent/Southeast England [ send me this paper ] A 5 page research paper/essay that discusses the Estuary English dialect. The field of sociolinguistics acknowledges that language is not an aspect of human social behavior that is static, but rather adapts and changes according to the ways in which people adapt language to fit their needs and perceptions of the world around them. As this suggests, sociolinguistics can be defined as “the study of language in human society” (Sociolinguistics, 2002). This examination of sociolinguistics specifically looks at the use of Estuary English, its link to Cockney English, and how this topic demonstrates that dialects and accents are related to social distinctions within British culture. The nature of Estuary English tends to break down class distinctions, in some way, while supporting social bias as well. Bibliography lists 5 sources. Filename: kheeeng.rtf

Does Thought Require Grammar? [ send me this paper ] A 5 page paper discussing the degree to which thought is dependent on having a grasp of grammar. Grammar not only provides the rules of establishing patterns of word order and usage, it also provides a framework of thought.
