What is a "speech community"?
A speech community is a group of people who share the same language or way of speaking, often because they live in the same area or belong to the same social group. Members of a speech community use similar words, grammar, and pronunciation, and they generally understand each other well. This community can be large, like everyone who speaks a particular language, or smaller, like people in a neighborhood or profession who use a specific dialect or jargon. The way they speak reflects their shared identity and experiences.
