     Each community has its linguistic characteristics due to social, structural, or geographical factors. This research looks at Jordan; it explores language variation in the speech of nonstandard Jordanian Arabic in the southern and northern regions in Jordan. Many phonological and morphological variations are examined.
   The sample consists of  20  inhabitants(10 participants from the north and 10 participants from the south). The data were collected through sociolinguistic interviews, and they have been analyzed within the framework of the VariationistParadigm.
    The results reveal that there are considerable phonological and morphological variations between the southern and northern dialects.
