Language "Deviances/Delays" vs Language "Differences"
Not all language and speech "errors" are "errors". Sometimes people, because of their social/cultural, dialectal or ethnic background, may seem to have big problems speaking. This is not always the case. Data has been collected for many different ethnicities and some of these "problems" are really normal to them as they learn to use the English language more proficiently. Hence, they are labeled differences and not delays.

Anthropology in the Arts (I of II)
One of the most critical issues in anthropology today is that of cultural representation. If we consider that the role of the anthropologist is (loosely) 1) to do fieldwork in a select culture and 2) convey the texture of what he has learned in the course of that fieldwork to a naïve audience, then it should not take long for us to arrive at the conclusion that much of what we know about culture (in either the specific or general sense) is largely dependent on our ability as readers to reasonably access meaning within the analytical or descriptive texts produced from that fieldwork.
