摘要:In language education, little attention has been paid to the importance of variations of a language. It is focused only on acquiring standard forms. However, knowing standard forms is not sufficient for understanding the target language in real situations. That is why when we learn a target language; we have to pay attention to its linguistic variations. It is believed that e-learning is the most appropriate means of teaching and learning those dialects, because it can offer multiple speaking contexts in the same time and space. Using and incorporating multimedia content is very helpful in enabling language learners to experience more realistic and practical usage of those variations. From this perspective, this paper gives a brief idea of building e-learning applications that are capable of teaching and learning not only standard, but also variations of a language.
