Charles Dickens (1812-1870) achieved a recognizable place among English writers through the use of the stylistic features in his fictional language. This study is concerned with Dickens unique fictional language, used in one of his novels entitled Hard Times, in relation to phonological deviation from settled norms in English. It endeavors to show Dickens manipulating language and the effects achieved through this manipulation. This research investigates Dickens use of language which deviates from the linguistic norm phonologically. As such, it is hypothesized that Dickens used phonological deviation to show the character s social class. The study aims to analyze the types of phonological deviations in Dickens Hard Times. It determines the reasons behind these deviations, and how that reflects Dickens philosophy and style in presenting class distinction in this novel.
