As well as Wardaugh, quoted in Hudson, explained that sociolinguistics is “the study of language in relation to society” while the sociology of language is “the study of society in relation to language”. Moreover, Meyerhoff stated that sociolinguistics is a very comprehensive field, and that it can be used in many different ways.
It is about how individual language is used, how people use language differently in different countries, cities or regions and how a nation determines which languages will be recognized in courts or education. W ardhaugh explained that the variety of language as a set of human speech system (words, sounds and grammatical features) that were related to external factors such as geographical area or social group. In the same way, Hudson also defined a variety of language as "a group of linguistic items with similar distribution".
