What is a "social dialect"?
A social dialect is a variation of a language that is spoken by a particular social group, often defined by factors like class, education, or profession. It influences the way people within the group communicate, using specific vocabulary, grammar, or pronunciation that may differ from the standard language or from other groups. Social dialects reflect the social identity and background of the speakers, and they can affect how speakers are perceived by others within and outside their social group.
