摘要：The relatively recent upsurge of interest in the language of men at the international level menlevel owes a significant deal to sociolinguistics, conscious masculine and interesting awarenessof civil rights. This interest is also great enhanced by the quick social change in the dress,appearance, and behavior of men in Jordan. However, as in all domains of scientific research,mainstream men’s sociolinguistics is a field of controversy. Writing from various perspectives,authors address the subject of men language with different aims in mind. For instance, some ofthese authors (cf. Labove 1972; Ervin-Tripp 1978; Hymes 1974) have pointed theinterdependence of patterns of speech variation and the gender of the speaker/ hearer. Moreover,other authors (Lakoff 1975; Zimmermann and West 1975) have assured that gender differencesare basically attributed to the socialization factor, hence the relevance of other variables such asethnic membership, age, and social class in the analysis of ladies language. On the other hand,other authors (Coates 1986; Bull and Swan 1992) think gender differences as reflexes of sometypes of men’s sociolinguistic “subculture.”
