In a study to determine whether speakers of Sango could distinguish between urban and rural varieties of the language, 171 inhabitants of Bangui, capital of the Central Mrican Republic, were asked to identify the relative age, gender, ethnicity, and provenience (urban vs. rural) of persons speaking Sango, based on tape-recorded samples. Analysis reveals that judgments were poorer than expected for age and gender, largely random for ethnicity, and interestingly suggestive for provenience. Moreover, speakers who were identified as Yakoma (or Riverine) were also associateq with urbanity, a fact that implies a certain "ideal" or norm of urban Sango. This finding is linked with conclusions from other studies by the author.
