Topic Modelling with BERTopic (Grootendorst 2022)
I participated 4 days to this seminar at Inalco in September.
DIGLOSSIA is a relatively stable language situation in which, in addition to the primary dialects of the language (which may include a standard or regional standards), there is a very divergent, highly codified (often grammatically more complex) superposed variety, the vehicle of a large and respected body of written literature, either of an earlier period or in another speech community, which is learned largely by formal education and is used for most written and formal spoken purposes but is not used by any section of the community for ordinary conversation. ( Ferguson (1959))
Indexicality: language varieties and variations (forms/accent) are significant:
2. index certain aspects of their social identity (class, gender, ethnicity)
3. are used advisedly by speakers: these resources can be used in interaction (to negotiate, for example)
