Age is by far the most underdeveloped of the sociolinguistic variables in terms of research literature. This book examines the discourse of adulthood and accounts for sociolinguistic variation, with regards to age and gender, through the exploration of a 90,000 word age and gender-differentiated spoken corpus of Irish English.
