1. What is a ';sociolinguistic sub-culture';?





2. Describe how female and male sociolinguistic sub-cultures are different and the ways that men and women might misread the cues they receive from the opposite sex when having conversations, addressing the following things:





a. How do female and male communication styles/forms differ; what things do men and women do differently in conversations with each other?





b. What is the role of peer-group learning among children for the way men and women communicate? What is it in girls' play that contributes to their sociolinguistic sub-culture, and what is it in boys' play that contributes to their sociolinguistic sub-Sociolinguistic sub-culture?
Sociolinguistic sub-culture? Christ... uhh... let me see. Socio... social... linguistic... language, speaking and what not, sub-culture... not mainstream culture. So... maybe different dialects or ways of speaking aside from the mainstream general method? Girls speak one way, Boys speak another way... and so forth. Keep in mind I understand I could be totally off here.
