Linguistic Variation (VLOG)
Just a short video in which we test the differences in our speech when we are at home or with our peers. A significantly longer version with in-depth discussion is on the way as well.

In the first video clip two different native speakers, Chinese and North American, say a phrase in their language and the other student has to mimic it.

In the Second video clip all group members mimic the accents spoken in four different regions;
the southern south mainly Texas, Spanglish, East Coast, and typical Southern California. however the southern Californian accent was broken into two parts because the guys and girls use completely different structure of language.

Slang Quiz (Vlog #1)
By: Aaron Hayag & Cheyanne Tarango
Since jargon and slang are elements found in Language Variation, we decided to quiz each other with slang words we learned from the region we grew up in.
Cheyanne – “SoCal” (reveals a lot of Spanish influence)
Aaron – Philippines (though technically not a “region”, English is still considered as one of the official languages in the Philippines so a lot of the slang words are actually in English; similar to how the word “bigpella” in one of the Hawaiian Pidgin languages we learned in class comes from the English phrase “big fellow” but with a slightly different meaning)
