Zach's Transcript Analysis.

-Gives praise 'very good' tells him it’s a good drawing, might encourage him to do activities like drawing again.

-Asks him lots of questions 'what are you drawing Zach?' open questions encourage him to talk and extend his sentences. 'We had some banana didn't we?' He can only respond yes or know so its limited his answer, however the mother only leaves a short pause after asking him this before she asks 'what else have we had?' this is a open question. She hasn't given him a lot of time to process the original question before asking the second one. This could also maybe because she realised it was a closed question and wanted him to speak more, or it could be because his body language in the video doesn't look like he is thinking to answer the first one so she’s asked him something else similar to keep him engaged and then encouraging to speak.

-Echoing 'Z: I think I don't H: nah I think you don't' could encourage him to maybe think about the fact he threw his food on the floor.

-Repair 'Z: Bolognay H: Bolognaise' She corrects him so hopefully he will eventually adapt his version of the noun to the correct pronunciation. 'Z: Frough H: Through' His muscles may have not developed to be able to make the sounds for 'through' as a result he has substituted his own sound however he may not be aware of this and thinks he is saying the adult version. As the mother echo's back to him the correct sound, over time he could develop the muscles and be able to say it how adults do.

-3rd person 'N: Mummy's dinner and Daddy's dinner' This could be so the child grown up knowing who is who, however as he gets older he may get confused with how to use certain pronouns like 'you' or 'they' but as parents as they get older they could start using 1st person to describe themselves and as a result the child could eventually, like the other language rules start to understand when to use it.

-Missing of the copula verb ‘I cutting round the edge’ missing out the auxiliary verb ‘am’ doesn’t mean the parents won’t understand what he’s saying.

-He asks his mum if its lasagne she has for tea. He wasn’t sure what her dinner was so gave it a noun he knows from his familiar topics, he overextends by categorising. 

-Zach confuses which noun is meant to be plural ‘so it’s a banana and it’s got skins’ this could be because once a banana is peeled it has many different parts. Or there could be more skins than bananas in his drawing. As a result the mother doesn’t repair his speech and just echo’s it back ‘are the skins off are they?’

-Zach uses a tag question ‘I can’t get it up der no?’ He’s encouraging some response, it sounds in the video like the mother and father are maybe settling down to eat as their food has been bought it which could be why he used to tag question to get their attention. Or he is genuinely confused and maybe questioning himself.

Everyone matters. - Every word is
important despite who said it.

Undoubtedly the work place will be filled with different ethnicities, cultures, ages, social classes and genders. So, it is understandable that there are many different languages and styles of speech. This article should guide you to a better understanding that different speech doesn't mean bad speech.

Different genders in the office.
If we looked overall at male and female's language, it is obvious that they use different approaches to language depending on who they are addressing. Woman are seen to be more co-operative and supportive towards one another, whereas men tend to use more derogative terms towards each other to emphasise they maintain a good relationship.
However it is more likely in the office to have mixed sex conversations. Studies have shown in mixed sex conversations there tends to be more confusion, however this does not mean the other persons point is less valid because you did not fully understand first time. To create the best working environment colleagues need to listen to each other and as a result will progress well as a team.
