The present study based on documentary research of sociolinguistic and sociology of language and gender relations shows that, there are differences in the language used by males and females in societies. Furthermore, the content and structure of languages regarding male and female interlocutors is not neutral. There is gendered orientation and gendered use of language between male and female language-users. These differences are related to the tone, style, and diction of language-users (both genders) as well as the structure, internal cohesion and natural characteristics of a language. The reasons for these differences are different depending on different time eras and societies. For example, in some societies these differences are related to taboo words or expressions for the females. Also, some differences are dependent on the domination of one country by the enemy forces and assimilation of the native language of the females of that country by the dominant ones’ language. Moreover, most of the time the differences are related to different social functions performed by each gender as well as the gendered expectations of the society. Also, some feministic linguists who have gendered orientations believe that the difference in language use between males and females are related to the male domination situation of that society. Manifestations of these differences were discussed in the present study. These manifestations include aspects like language representation in the social life of the society, i.e. language echoes the value system and functional aspects of a social system in dealing with males and females and strengthening and foregrounding these gendered differences. According to the relativity of language proposed by Sapir and Whorf, it may result in exploitation, explication, emphasis, strengthening and commonality of these differences and superiorities between males and females. The present study uses the theoretical framework of the relativity of language proposed by Sapir and Whorf, the theory of taboo, the theory of domination, the theory of the differences in functions, and the theory of the domination in explanation or definition. The research methodology is of qualitative type with interpretive-comparative approach using documentary data with reference to sociology of language and sociolinguistics. The population comprises different languages of the world.

This paper reflects on Language-sociological approach on Quranic verses of language (Lesan). To do this, in a terminological approach, the verses included the word (Lesan) were extracted and 24 verses were classified using late categorization method.Among 13 issues resulted from categorization, there are considerable frequency in subjects such as Arabic language, descending Quran and prophets’ missions. This finding besides other language explanations in Quran (explanation of man’s creation) is leading us to hypothesis of centrality of language in Quran. The main question of the paper is: Do the descending of Quran in Arabic (emphasis on this feature) is to match it with Arabic culture and language, improvement, reproduce and demonization of Arabic on Ajam?  In a comparative approach, linguistic viewpoint of Quran is compared with postmodern linguistic. The result is an incomplete plan of Quranic philosophy that could be reinforced in other studies with extracting other words synonymous to Lesan.
