Stylistic knowledge is often unequally distributed in language communities. The same style of speaking may be differently interpreted by different individuals. Using the repertory-grid method, this study develops a novel approach for researching such knowledge in specific target groups. To accomplish this, it compiles metalinguistic descriptions into a repertoire of speech styles based on the example of radio announcing.
