How Does the Entertainment Industry Use Language to Depict Character？
Select a movie or television program and then choose a scene at least two（2）minutes in length. Analyze the use of language by characters in the scene，making reference to the major systems of language that we’ve talked about this semester：
1，Phonology（including paralanguage：intonation，volume，speed，pitch，etc.）
2. Vocabulary（the use of distinctive words，including slang，obscenity，and profanity）
3. Grammar（the use of standard vs. non-standard grammar）
4. Communicative style and manner（See Communicative Contexts below）
Here are some specific language-related issues you might think about：
A. National dialects（British，American，Australian，other）
B. Regional dialects in the US（including New York City，New Jersey，Philadelphia，Appalachia，Coastal South，etc.）
C. Social dialects（African-American English in the US：GAE vs. a regional dialect in the US .; RP vs. a regional dialect in Britain）
D. Gender differences in language use
E. Features of a foreign accent（English as a second language）
F. Communicative Contexts

Be sure to identify the television episode or movie clip that you’ve analyzed
If your clip is on YouTube，be sure to send an e-mail message with the URL that will open your clip online.（without a clip，no evaluation of your analysis will be possible）
A video clip on Netflix or Hulu will also be OK，just provide a citation for the specific scene you’ve analyzed。If the clip isnt accessible on-line，you may submit a DVD instead.
Length：About two pages（500 words double-spaced）
