Abstract:
How women and men use language in conversation, what differences, how genders use and affect language, are the main focuses of the study. The data with 9 different texts is collected from official seminars between Vietnamese students and Swedish teachers, so language use here is quite formal. The data is observed; the findings of speakers are compared and discussed to find out the differences within quantitative method. The main result of the study is that the men take up more linguistic space and dominate the topical shifts in the conversation, but they take little care to polite norms, politeness strategies when they have conversation with women, however; in this aspect, women take prominent role. They are nice to talk to and they know how to listen and give good impression. The finding is consistent with previous research within the field of gender and language. In conclusion, gender differences with cultural influence causes different language uses when men and women involve in communication process.
