Thesis Abstract
This project investigates the linguistic representation of aging and ageism, exploring how language shapes perceptions of older adults and influences intergenerational communication. It aims to analyze the use of language in reinforcing ageist stereotypes, as well as the potential for linguistic interventions to challenge age-based discrimination. By examining the intersection of language and aging, this research seeks to contribute to a deeper understanding of the role of language in shaping attitudes towards older individuals and promoting age-inclusive communication.
