The purpose of the witness is to show the behavior of how he responds to the detective and uses accent, dialect, sociolect (The dialect of a particular social class.) to show that he is from a background where he has less intelligence than the detective by responding in short answers and grunts to the questions asked, when the detective, McArdle, asks “So your boy’s name is what?” the witness replies with a short answer, which is also a statement “Snot.” A reason why the witness is replying in short answers may be because that he is refusing to give away too much evidence and go to court when the detective says “…even after the rollers and the ambo got here… you were still here waiting ‘cause you got something to tell me, right?” In this quote the detective also uses idiolect ‘rollers’ for ‘Police vehicles’ and ‘ambo’ for ‘ambulance’, the witness replies with a shock “I ain’t going no court.”…
