Language is a crucial part of human identity. It influences the way we think, talk, and write about ourselves and others. In this program, the relationship between language and identity is explored as we follow Detective Quinn’s investigation of a bank robbery. Listen to the interviews of four witnesses with very different ways of speaking: Queen’s English, Australian ocker, business jargon, and hip-hop. At the end of each witness statement, information on each style of speech and its characteristics is given. This is an excellent resource for showcasing how language influences identity and identity influences language.
