| Sumario: | Since Currie (1952) first used the term ‘sociolinguistics’ and claimed its status as an autonomous discipline, its development and influence over other areas of linguistic research in recent years have been very considerable within and, mainly, outside of Spain. The social and linguistic heterogeneity of language constitutes one of the most highlighted aspects in Sociolinguistics since its emergence as a discipline. Therefore, if regular and structural variability is characteristic of the normal use of the language as well as the key to understanding the mechanisms of linguistic change, similarly, the knowledge and command of this kind of linguistic variation present within the community is also very closely linked to the speaker’s degree of sociolinguistic competence, so that every foreign language learner must be aware of its existence and, therefore, must be contemplated in EFL teaching and text materials. |
