Question 1. What specific concepts, issues, phenomena, etc. can you pull from this article that have direct correlation to what we've read/discussed regarding 'language attitudes'?

Question 2. As discussed in class, what is the 'communicative burden'?

Question 3. In the minds of those like Lippi-Green (2012), the communicative burden should not fall on the shoulders of non-standard variant speakers alone. In your opinion, how should the communicative burden be distributed in the context described in this article?

Consider, for example:

Should there be an expectation that, in a formal courtroom setting, people speak a more standard form of the language? Why or why not? What are the practical implications?

Do you think court reporters should have specific training to be able to understand a broader variety of language variants? Why or why not? If so, what other professions might this impact? What are the practical implications?
