插图：On most occasions, people imitate the speech of those who are in higher social positions. At the same time, many upper classes also borrow slang vocabulary from lower classes, especially the youth from the higher social groups who often imitate the pronunciation or informal discourse of the lower strata. For example, in Australia the lower class people are fond of using high-rise terminal in declarative sentences as they treat a question, which is thought as vulgar and full of vernacular features by the older generation. However, many youth from the higher strata would strive to be the first in imitating it.Different discourse styles of male and female form another important factor generating language variation. We will discuss the relationship between language and gender in chapter 4. Holmes ( 1998 ) points out that in general, women tend to introduce the prestige forms, whereas men tend to lead changes in the opposite direction, introducing new vernacular forms. Women use more standard but less vernacular forms than men. Holmes once made an investigation in a Spanish countryside and found that many women there tired of farming, went to city and began imitating standard language after they found jobs in the city ( even as baby-sitters, they could contact middle class employers). In contrast, many city upper-working class men often adopted informal forms of middle or lower-working class men, including vulgar of swear words or taboo words.
