The volume highlights the importance of these central linguistic phenomena; it includes empirical analyses and linguistic descriptions, as well as explanations for existing patterns of variation and proposals for theoretical frameworks. The book treats languages in obsolescence and in their youth; it examines registers from languages from around the globe; and it offers several of the most complete studies of registers and register variation published to date, adopting both synchronic and diachronic perspectives.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47614968234135,"sku":"9780195083644","price":13321.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780195083644.webp?v=1775097497","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/sociolinguistic-perspectives-on-register-9780195083644","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
