Postawy wobec języka młodych ludzi w Polsce i jego społeczne postrzeganie w wybranych aspektach - przyczynek do refleksji
Attitudes towards the language of young people in Poland and its social perception in selected aspects - a contribution to reflection

Summary/Abstract: The article addresses the issue of how certain social groups perceive the language of youth (youth slang). Before addressing this main issue, an attempt is made to briefly explain the concepts that are key to understanding the content discussed (youth language - its various names, as well as its functioning as a sociolect). Initial explanations and diagnoses serve to build a further picture of the attitudes adopted by some groups towards the language of young people on several levels. One of them is considered at the level of the relationship between young people and the slang they use. The focus is briefly on the role of school as an institution that is supposed to shape respect for the native language. The next part of the reflection discusses the attitudes towards youth slang that the older generation may demonstrate. In order to justify and authenticate the conclusions, the observations are confronted with the results of survey studies reflecting the empirical dimension of certain linguistic phenomena.
