Abstract:

The influence of the feminist movement on language and gender studies has been considerable over the past several decades across many languages. Such studies have sometimes identified linguistic sexism in these languages. Language professionals have shown the relation between language and the position of women in society by examining representations of the sexes in language systems and language use. These studies have contributed to language planning and language reform across many languages. The study examines the complex relationship between linguistic representations of women and their soci

Abstract:

Like many other social issues concerning gender, language also comes with gendered stereotypes and limitations which results in difference and inequality in speech, based on gender. According to folk-linguistic beliefs and a variety of linguists, women are believed to speak in a specific way in which using swear words is not considered ideal. In this context, folk-linguistic beliefs are general speculations concerning language which is grounded on personal opinions and misconceptions. One common misconception remains that women swear less as foul language is considered as an emotion of anger,

This thesis addresses women's agency in the mediation and reception of mid nineteenth-century fiction from the end of the 1840s until the beginning of the 1870s. It demonstrates how women participated in shaping an ideology of the feminine by utilising the platform of periodical reviewing to monitor constructions of womanhood in the novels of women writers. The notion of a feminine critical discourse about gender is a familiar one. There has been academic interest in the reactions of reviewers such as Margaret Oliphant and Geraldine Jewsbury to images of the feminine in sensation novels, but n

However, there is little recognition in previous literature of the sexist and gendered role of proverbs in Pashtun society.

This study reexamines Lakoff’s (1973) claim that women use more hedges than men is true. Because of the vast number of hedges, this study focuses on two hedges: I think and I’m sure.

The study has been carried out with the help of a corpus called British National Corpus 2014 (BNC2014).
