accommodation theory  

Definición

  • Sociolinguistic research in the 1950s and 1960s had shown how people change the degree of formality of their language as a function of the social contexts in which they find themselves. This was explained in terms of social norms dictating language use. [Source: Encyclopedia of Communication Theory; Accommodation Theory]
