World Journal of English Language, 2022, vol. 12, issue 6, 97

Abstract: Many psychologists, sociologists, anthropologists, and other researchers into language and gender have shown a keener interest in the differences between men and women in the ways they communicate and interact than in the similarities between them, focusing on aspects such as style of language and speech. By highlighting some of the important aspects of cross-gender communication and language variation, the main objective of this paper is to suggest areas for more in-depth research in the future that could produce findings that may be useful for effective English language teaching. The paper is based on a review of relevant research in the area under consideration with the aim of providing a suitable theoretical framework for future research.
