520    Think about this: How would you address a group of two or 
       more people? Would you say "you", "you all", "yous", "you 
       lot", "y'all", "you guys", "you'uns", "yinz", or something
       else? Would that change depending on whom you were talking
       to or where you were? Your answers can provide revealing 
       insights into who you are, where you grew up or live now, 
       and your social, economic, and educational 
       background.Welcome to the enthralling world of 
       linguistics. If you've ever been curious about how words 
       like awesomesauce ever came to be, let alone made it into 
       the Oxford English Dictionary, or if you've wondered why 
       you say "firefly" and someone else calls the same insect a
       "lightning bug", English in America is for you.There's an 
       incredibly rich and colorful history behind American 
       English. A profoundly diverse assortment of cultures has 
       influenced our vocabulary, pronunciation, and grammar, and
       the language continues to grow and shift. Dialect 
       variations are widespread and actually increasing, and the
       new words, accents, and sentence structures both reflect 
       and shape changes in our culture and society. 
       Investigating these dialects is the domain of 
       sociolinguistics, the study of the intricate interrelation
       between language variation and cultural, interpersonal, 
       and personal identity.Over 24 lectures, you'll encounter a
       wide range of ethnic and social groups that have shaped 
       the course of the development of American English over the
       centuries: English speakers from all over the British 
       Isles; speakers of West African languages; immigrants from
       Western and Eastern Europe; speakers of languages from 
       Asia; and Spanish speakers from all over the world. In 
       considering the contributions of these groups, you'll also
       gain deep insights into the perceptions - and 
       misperceptions - about language and dialect variation. As 
       you'll discover, American English is an umbrella term for 
       many different EnglishES, reflecting who we have always 
       been as a nation.
