    Im going to be honest right now. Firstly thank you so much for the clean video. It was indeed very helpful... but my problem is, In general we don't give enough value to helpful people like you and that bothers me a lot because without you I don't think I could learn the basics of sociolinguistics. We don't look up for you until we have an exam or whatever, so Im here to give some love :) thank you so much again. (not a native speaker of English)

    This is interesting, entertaining and informative. I can also see how RP (BBC) English was an indicator of upper class upbringing and at the other end Cockney English a symbol of the working class. The news reader with RP English has long gone. Maggie thatcher was a good example of RP as is Joanna Lumley. In N Ireland drive 20 kilometres in any direction and the dialect changed, but in NZ especially the North island, the dialect remained the same over the entire island. In the south of NZ people rolled their rs in Invercargill due to the influence of Scottish settlers. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and research.

    Thank you for sharing sir here are my highlights i've listed: - Sociolinguistics is the study of language variation in society, including pronunciation, vocabulary, and sentence structure. - Language choices reflect social identity and are influenced by factors such as geography, socioeconomic class, ethnicity, gender, age, and sexual orientation. - Dialects are characteristic of specific groups and are just as grammatical as standard varieties. - Sociolinguists examine both linguistic and social factors to explain language variation. - Overt prestige is associated with standard language, while covert prestige is linked to stigmatized dialect features. - Sociolinguistics reveals how language variation is shaped by society and identity.

    Your explanation about the phonological difficulty in pronouncing "cleverer" in AE is interesting . It is definitely difficult to articulate, but my language teachers always taught us that one-syllable words could take "-er" endings, but two or more syllable words had to be formed with "more."

    Your teacher gave you an explanation that is easy to remember and that works well most of the time. That's what a good teacher should do. However, there are many 2-syllable adjectives that prefer "-er": easy, heavy, simple, etc. And then there are also 1-syllable adjectives that prefer "more": real, ill, dire, etc. If you want the full scoop on English comparatives, look here: members.unine.ch/martin.hilpert/ECSU.pdf
