DEFINITION OF LANGUAGE ATTITUDE
Language attitudes are actually the feelings people
have about their own language or the languages of
others, and further defined, as an individual’s
psychological construction regarding their own
language and/or the languages of others (see
Crystal in Şimşek et al. 2007: 1).
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE NOTION OF
SPEECH AND LANGUAGE ATTITUDE
The notion of speech community is most
generally used as a tool to define a unit of
analysis within which to analyze language
variation and change. Stylistic features differ
among speech communities based on factors such
as the group's socioeconomic status, common
interests and the level of formality expected within
the group and by its larger society.
THE MATCHED-GUISE

The
Matched-Guise
Test
is
a
sociolinguistic
experiment
technique
employed by a method and its most related
research in two or more guises, which has
been lately known as matched-guise or
matched-guise model.
This experiment was first introduced by
Lambert in 1960s to determine attitudes
THE INFLUENCE FACTOR OF
LANGUAGE ATTITUDE
According to Reagan (2002: 47f.), and from an American point of
view, the fundamental factors which determine a language’s
attitude are the following six factors:
(1) the size of the language’s speaker community;
(2) the geographic spread of the language (including its use as a
second language, or lingua franca);
(3) whether the language constitutes a heritage language in the
local American setting;
(4) whether the language is a language of wider communication;
(5) whether the language has an established and recognised
literary/written tradition; and
(6) whether the language is a “living” or “dead” language.
THE INSTRUMENTAL AND
INTEGRATIVE LANGUAGE ATTITUDE
When studying language attitudes, the concept of motives
is important. Two basic motives are called instrumental
and integrative motives.


If L2 acquisition is considered as instrumental, the
knowledge in a language is considered as a "passport to
prestige and success". The speaker/learner considers the
speaking/learning of English as functional (Ellis 1991:
117).
On the other hand, if a learner wishes to identify with
the target community; to learn the language and the
culture of the speakers of that language in order to
perhaps be able to become a member of the group, the
motivation is called integrative.
