Dialectology is a sub-field of linguistics. It studies variations in
language based primarily on geographic distribution and the features associated with it. Dialectology treats such topics as divergence of two local dialects from a common ancestor and synchronic variation. William Labov is one of the most prominent researchers in this field.
