Detailed explanation-1: -The ethnography of communication (EOC), originally called the ethnography of speaking, is the analysis of communication within the wider context of the social and cultural practices and beliefs of the members of a particular culture or speech community.

Detailed explanation-2: -The ethnography of communication is an approach to language research which has its origin in the development of a view in anthropology that culture to a large extent is expressed through language and of the view in linguistics that language is a system of cultural behaviors (Hymes, 1974; Geertz, 1973; Hymes, 1968).

Detailed explanation-3: -The methods used by children in learning the various socio‑cultural systems that they interact, are the same methods that are used by the ethnographer in learning a new cultural system: observation, interviewing, participating, and making interpretations.
