The linguistic variation between male and female

We are even a task which Is focuses on this topic and to find out whether is there any differences In the linguistic variation between males and females. There are some fact said that males and females have differences In many ways especially In physical and mental since they were an infant. Thus, to prove what we have assumed, we already choose randomly some of Corporate Communication’s students which are four males and four females as our main respondent to complete this project. Linguistic variation is about the usage of the language.

The usages of the language refer to the social factors which is different language in a different time and he same meaning of the language but in the different forms of the sentence structures.

Thus, the variety of the languages depends on whether the speakers have superiority to speak with a large vocabulary and grammar. So, this can relate on how efficient they used vocabulary and how well they speak. In addition, language variety is more on how speaker responds with each other so that we can overview on how fluent the speaker dominant the language.

The mall factors that contributed the linguistic variation are based on the social class, working experiences and secondary education background of the speaker. Social class Is observed based on their life background and where they come from which is depends to the current places they live at. On the other hand, working experiences also contributed in how fluent and effective speaker speak or responds with others.

Next factors, secondary education background of the speaker whether they are from the rural area school or from urban school which is located in the busiest urban middle.

Moreover, gender is main important role in linguistic variation and there are huge differences between both genders. As Malaysian, our first language Is Basis Malaysia and English are known as our second language. Thus, our project are focuses on how well they can respond on our question surveys in second language and how many words have been used by male main subject in our project because of their proficiency in the usage of English language. Their course itself shown that they are more to communication skills, so we think that they are the best subject to observe.

We interviewed them and see how well they respond to our questions interview that contains five questions that related to their recent activities which is Array. In this project, we come up with a lot of information that we found during our interview. 1. PURPOSE OF THE PROJECT The purpose of the project is to . I.

It’s easier to us to make observation because we can play it again and again. We interviewed whenever we met them, for example in front of Somas, cafe, lobby and Student Square. From our female interviewees, there are five people who labeled as Fl, IF, IF, and IF. We have done with our interview in a week. Other than asking questions, we also gave them the form of Preliminary Background of The Interviewee.

We asked them to tick on the gender; male or female, hometown; city or village, secondary school, and any working experience; yes (please state) or no. It sis enough for us to do our report based on the information given. Fl answered IQ with “ Illuminable, so far so good, I have fun with my family and all my friends come to my house. Koala.

4 DISCUSSION Based on our finding, we found that male and female speak differently in many ways including speech, language and vocabulary. There are a lot of differences in language between male and female. First and foremost, based on our finding and observation, we found that female speak more than male. When they have problem, they need to talk to someone to make they feel secure and safe.

Therefore, in every classroom there are always have hose groups of female students that always make noise and talk too much while male students will speak only when necessary. Research has shown that female talk almost three times as much as male, with females talking on average 20, 000 words a day and males Just 7, 000. Based on our finding, the female speakers talk on average 618 words and male speakers Just 176 words. So, it’s true that female speak more than male. The truth is female like to talk.

Then, we found that female use more standard form of language compare to male.

Male usually use vernacular form of language which is not officially. From our interviewed, the female speaker use standard language such as ‘ austere’, ‘ surprisingly, togetherness’, and so on. Our male speakers keep using simple words that had been used in daily life such as Well’, ‘ normal’, ‘ okay and others. Other than that, female speak more fluently than male. From our finding, we Male speakers take time to answer the questions.

They think first and sometime, they have no idea to talk about some topics such as about the preparation for Array. We all know that male have not really cared about the clothes, decoration and others.

However, when male speak, they usually focus of specific area. For example, they like to talk about sports and business while female like to speak about their feeling including their emotions.

For example, when male talk about football matches, they just talk about the game only. But, when female talk about football matches, they will also talk about the players, the gossip of the players and so on. However, male only involve with emotions when it’s come to watching football or playing games. For example, when their favorite team win or lose, they will express themselves with emotions.

It is because this is the only time that it is okay to be emotional in front of heir buddies. Other than that, we found that female speakers are easy to corporate rather than male speakers.

It’s hard for us to find male speaker among Corporate Communication students. Female speak more polite compare to male. From our finding, female speakers speak more softly and aware about others’ feeling. Based on the researches, female speakers like to apologize in their speech or conversation. Female also use poetic and various superlatives, metaphors, and generalizations more than male.

That had been some researchers said that female speak literally, therefore they are quite faster in learning language. In our interview, female speakers speak in full sentences while answering the question. For example, the question is “ What dishes during Array you like the most? ” Then female speakers will answer with “ My dishes during Array I like the most is..

.. ” It’s different with male speakers, they answered with “ l like rending” or Just one word, “ rending”. It shown that male Just speaks directly what they want to say and answer the question in a short sentence.

Thus, in our opinion we assume that male and female speak differently according to the three factors that affecting the way they speak which are working experience, Social status and education background. Besides that, these three factors are the main factors which affecting on how they speak. Based on our findings, there are a lot of factors that affected the language variation between male and female which is working experience, social status and education background. For example, our male interviewee, who is labeled as MI speak a lot when answering the last question which is strategic question.

He answered Q with “ I’ll cut it to five pieces of part. First, I will keep it for my ASP account and maybe half of that money I will keep it for my investment and half again for the orphan. Thank you. ” We think that is because his working experience influence his way of speaking.

Although he came from village, he can speak fluently because of his education’s background that influences him the most. In addition, he answers the question with full sentences and the sentences are well structure. On the other hand, the female speaker, who is labeled as Fl, speaks less than other female speakers.

She answered Q with short answer, “ Oh of course I like not have any working experience. Based on these factors, we can see that the way hey speak are depends on their working experience, social status and education background.

All these factors somehow or rather influence the way they speaks and how they answer the question survey given. Moreover, female speak with their emotion rather than male speaker. Based on our discussion, we find that these three factors are strongly support the reason why the both speakers respond differently and this is shown that both gender have different perspective and interest on something.

Hence, as for conclusion we find that the way of the speakers respond is based on the working experience, social tutus and education background that effecting on how the speakers speak and respond. In addition, these three factors are the main factors why the language variation between male and female of Corporate Communication semester three KEPT Koala Lump occurred.

1. 5 CONCLUSION In nutshells, based on our finding and discussion, it is true that male and female speak differently. The factors that contribute to the differences are social status, working experience and education background of the both speaker.

The result of our project is female speaker speak more than male speaker because female use tankard language and complete sentence to answer the questions given, while male just answer only few words and not using a complete sentence.

Female speaker also use standard words which is not basic words or the main common words that we used in our daily conversation, while male speaker Just use basic words to answer sentences and in a proper way while the male speaker only answer it as to satisfy the question only with a short answer.

We can see the differences when female speaker answer the question with detailed information but the male speaker Just give a simple answer. While based on the facts that have been proved by us and others, we believed that male and female always speak in that way because of the low status of them and based on their social pressure on them to talk or speak like that. Plus, they find that it is too formal to them to talk that way. Furthermore, male always used the basic words in their daily life while answering some question because of they feel unsure to give the good answer to the interviewee.

In the other word to understand them, they are having a lack of mastery in vocabulary and they tend to speak using the basic vocabulary that they know better than using complex words. Besides that, female will apply their sake of politeness that finally will contribute to characterizing their female’s language. This is why the female always speak using a standard language because of the manner of the language will put them into a power in the society and politeness will reflect on their personalities.

The way in both of male and female used their language is not straightforward but Just through their identities and their ideology to admit that both gender and their language have some variables based on the social status, working experiences and secondary education aground. Moreover, it also based on their knowledge on how to respond to the main issues given.

We find that these three major factors are the main sources that influence them the most. Thus, we have proved that gender is contributed to the main important role in linguistic variation and there are really huge differences between both genders.

Both genders speak differently according to their own understanding and it is based on their knowledge. In addition, both genders speak well when they speak with the common topic that they like the most and familiar to them.

Both genders have efferent interests and this is prove when the male speaker find difficulties to answer our interview question that is not their interests to talk about while the female are very expert and fluent on respond to the question given.

However, there are many other possibilities that could be the reason of the linguistic variation between male and female and why both of the speakers tend to speak the way they want. The possibilities will be the main reason why both speakers have different way of deliver and respond on their speech. It could be possible that they tend to speak like that u to their interests, proficiency in the topic, social status and many terms that contributed linguistic variation between male and female occurred. On the other hand, there are many possibilities of other reason why linguistic variation takes place.
