Proceeding International Seminar on Linguistics (ISOL-3) "Language and Social Change"

In contrast, a lexicon that did not exist before appeared and was widely used in the next period. The pronunciation of a word may change from time to time.
Many factors can cause language changes. Contacts between cultures or speakers of different language, language policies made by the authorities or government and the advancement of science and technology are among the factors responsible for the change.
