Abstract
This piece is an introduction and a review of one of Ralph Fasold’s works, the Sociolinguistics of Language. From address forms to pragmatics, Prof. Fasold studied various language phenomena in social communications, including gender and language, discourse analysis, and creolistics. Pidgin and creole language phenomena should be examined in terms of processes instead of types of languages. To apply the theory into daily experiences, we should make efforts in language arts education.
