These linguistic traits serve as markers of ethnic identity, distinguishing one group from another. Consequently, language becomes a crucial tool for expressing and preserving a group's cultural heritage. Social networks, the interconnected web of relationships between individuals or groups, also play a key role in language change. These networks include both strong ties, like those with close friends and family, and weak ties, such as those with acquaintances.
