This paper endeavors to study how male and female characters
reflect differences in social identities through speech, gendered
way of talking and misinterpretation in their articulation.
Deborah Tanen’s Difference theory as framework is used and
data is collected from the dialogues of Pakistani drama serial
“Anaa” and analyzed qualitatively using thematic approach.
The results show that language of men is significantly different
from that of women because of traditional gender roles assigned
and assumed under the influence of ideologies propagated by
different agencies including family, society, institutions and
media discourses. Findings of the study can be useful to bridge
the gap between the opposite sexes to bring harmony and
healthy atmosphere especially in educational institutions and
workplace. The study suggests that awareness about cross
cultural communication should be made an integral part of
syllabus especially in foreign and second language acquisition
to bring harmony in opposite sexes and avoid social conflict
