Summarize the relationship between individual speakers and language change. Use at least two details from the text in your response

Answer with Explanation:

Language change is largely dependent on "individual speakers" and how they internalize and analyze the language which was passed to them for generations.

As mentioned in the article "teens and adults often use different words and phrases from their parents." This means that language change is dependent on the person's geographic location, social status, age, level of education, etc. Such changes are brought about by the speaker's interaction with one another and how they learn new words, phrases and vocabularies and try to incorporate such changes into their way of speaking. The person's ability to learn the language affects how language changes. It is said in the article that "children serve as agents for language change." This is because children have a huge influence for the new generation's language.
