SPEECH
Finally, there are several language effects covering the ways in which people speak, which we have put under the heading Speech. For instance, dialect is a form of language specific to a region or social group, and slang consists of very informal words and phrases such as “cop” instead of “police officer”
Speech
- Dialogue (people speaking to each other)
- Dialect (language used in specific regions or by particular social groups, e.g. gang language)
- Slang (very informal words and phrases, often restricted to particular groups of people)
- Monologue (a long speech by one person)
