Convergence and Divergence: Ladette to Lady

Watch the YouTube video from 34:25 and make notes on where the following appear:

Convergence - where a speaker moves towards another speaker's accent, dialect or sociolect

Upward convergence - changing your accent or lexical choices to something you perceive as more prestigious

Downward convergence - making your accent or lexical choices more informal

Divergence - where a speaker actively distances themselves from another speaker by accentuating their own accent or dialect
