For example, how many first language speakers of the language are there? What parts of the world is it spoken in? Who speaks it? Is it commonly spoken as a second language\/dialect? Where and who speaks it as a second language\/dialect?<\/span><\/li>\n
- What attitudes exist about this language\/dialect? What are some things different people might say about it? Give some examples.<\/span><\/li>\n
- Is this language\/dialect perceived in different ways in different areas or contexts? What are the differences and why do you think this is?<\/span><\/li>\n
- What social factors do you think are associated with attitudes that people have towards this language\/dialect? Racial? Socioeconomic class? Cultural? Education? Ethnic? Sexual or gender identity association? Physical\/mental impairment? Anything else?
