Using examples from politics, law, and education, this book shows how people misconceive language every day and what the consequences of misconceptions can be. This book offers many specific suggestions and guidelines for approaching a linguistic project. It also helps students of sociolinguistics avoid pitfalls that may inhibit research.

The Contributions to the Sociology of Language series features publications dealing with sociolinguistic theory, methods, findings and applications. It addresses the study of language in society in its broadest sense, as a truly international and interdisciplinary field in which various approaches - theoretical and empirical - supplement and complement each other. The series invites the attention of linguists, language teachers of all interests, sociologists, political scientists, anthropologists and historians to the development of the sociology of language.
