The collection points to a number of theoretical insights and analytic innovations, often first presented at NWAV and then disseminated through the Journal. These themes include the study of vernacular speech, standard language, change in real and apparent time, language ideology, ethnicity, gender, power, authenticity, globalization, bilingualism, acquisition of variation, social meaning, indexicality, perception, cognition, and the birth of new dialects.
