Case 2:A number of years ago there was an interesting phenomenon in the Chinese entertainment circle.On the one hand there were many entertainers who were born and brought up in northernChina trying to adopt a Cantonese accent.On the other hand,there were other northern-bred entertainers ridiculing (the linguistic efforts of the first group of entertainers in their performances or comments. Case 3:Below is a dialogue between 2 aboriginal Australians. Son:Mom,did you buy ni-warnnyi (meat)? Mother:Say na-warnnyi not ni-warnnyi.Ni-warnnyi is women's talk.

()41.The answer should include main points underlined in the answer key.Please note that the wording of the main points doesn't have to be the same as provided blow. From the 3 cases we can see that language helps to define and maintain identity. In Case 1 Igbo alphabet/language is thought of as a way to assert and maintain the national identity and using the alphabets which were easier to the British is a reflection of the hangover of the colonization or giving up the national identity.This shows that language helps to establish and maintain national identity. Case 2 shows that language helps to establish and maintain regional and status identity. The first group of entertainers tried to adopt the Cantonese accent because Cantonese is a dialect associated with higher status.This dialect gains a higher status because of the better economy in the area it is spoken.The second group of entertainers ridiculed the first group because by trying to sound like Cantonese the first group gave up their northern accent, which is also part of their regional identity. Case 3 shows that language can be used to preserve gender difference.Some languages require male and female to speak differently,even use different words.In this case,men have to use na-warnnyi,women ni-warnnyi.The distinction between men's language and women's language is seen as a means to maintain the difference between genders,as shown in the case by the mother's asking the son to talk like a man. 507
