Full event details

We all have opinions on language. It might be about what is 'correct' and what is 'incorrect', or maybe it's the accent that you just love to listen to (or, in some cases, just can't stand to listen to!). Language variation and attitudes to language varieties have been studied extensively in sociolinguistics, but, how can we examine peoples' attitudes and stereotypes towards other speakers? and how can authors, screenwriters, computer game designers etc. tap into our social evaluations when creating the characters we all know and love....or, maybe even hate?
