Abstract
The acculturation of students from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds is achieved primarily through the process of language socialization. This article reviews some of the issues involved in the relationship between language and social skills and the types of variation that must be addressed. Implications are discussed for the practicing speech-language pathologist.Keywords
