Citazioni | The limits for a community vary with the extent of language difference as geographic distance or boundaries, and social divisions, increase. This comprises the talk which takes place in a language community, i.e. among a group of speakers, each of whom speaks the language as a native, and may be considered an informant from the point of view of the linguist. None of the terms used here can be rigorously defined. |
