Sorry. We neither provide essays nor do school assignments, but if you submit your work, we'd be more than happy to look through it and provide suggestions on how to improve it.

Examine the main linguistic characteristics
by the way, a question to the experts - what is understood by 'linguistic characterization of a language'?

in this case you would have to look at some nonstandard dialect (if it was American, you could pick redneck or ebonics for instance) and explain the linguistic differences that give it its own unique identity. Basically, 'How does it differ from standard English?'
