Focusing on urban adolescents at a non-mainstream learning center in the UK, this book explores how they use language and semiotic practices to shape their identities. By integrating variationist sociolinguistics with ethnographically-informed interactional sociolinguistics, it offers in-depth descriptions of linguistic processes in an underexplored setting. The work sheds light on the evolution of urban British English and the challenges of conducting ethnographic research in complex environments, making it a valuable resource for scholars and educators alike.
