Linguistics

Patterns within a language and across languages trying to understand what principles drive our brain's comprehension and production of the language.

As linguistics:

Languages and Language

Objects of the study

As linguistics:

Look at languages as data and recognize theis patterns

Linguistics learn

Main branches of linguistics

Linguistics is understood as the scientific study of language and among other occupations is responsible for: Describe structures governed by rules of languages.

Branches and examples

The stydy of some sistems and how they pattern

There are many examples of t's on the middle of words that sounds quite diffrerent from t's at the beginning or end of words.

Phonology

The stydy of acustics and sounds of languages

Phonetics

The stress words in a normal sentence is louder and higher pitched

ANna likes bananas

in a question it's pronounced with a lower pitch

Does ANna like bananas?

The stydy of sentence structure

Syntax

wh- words : what, how, who, where, why, which...

I eat an orange, like a posible response to the question What do you eat?

The word what corresponds to apple, but it show up at the beginning of the sentence.

The stydy of meaning and formalizing it into a logical form

Some languages have a phenomenon called Wh-movement, wh-words are the question words: whwrw, how, what, when, why, ...

IN English, that wh-words moves to front of the sentence.

Semantics

The stydy of language manifest in the brain

Psycholinguists

Carry out experiments to obserb the reation of the brain's different stimuli.

The brain and language – evolutionary explanations of why humans have the capacity to use language, and the parts of the brain concerned with different areas of language, also considering whether or not non-human animals have the ability to use language too.

second language acquisition and use – looking at bilingualism and how individuals can learn a second language and are able to differentiate between them.

The stydy of the intersection with the society

Sociolinguistics

Sociolinguistics is the study of the connection between language and society and the way people use language in different social situations. It asks the question, "How does language affect the social nature of human beings, and how does social interaction shape language?" It ranges greatly in depth and detail, from the study of dialects across a given region to the analysis of the way men and women speak to each other in certain situations.

The stydy of applying computer science to linguistics

Computacional linguistics might use programming to model linguistic structure or change for practical applications, such as Natural Language Processing

Modeling how language acquisition works as well as for traslatons sofware.

Computacional Linguistics

The stydy of how language changes across the time

Using reconstructions, historical linguistics wll try to trace migration patterns and make inferences about the prehistoric culture, triangulating with results by geneticists, antropologists and archeologists.

Historical linguists mighe also look at what patterns exist in language change and seek to explain why these patterns exist.

Historical Linguisticss

The stydy of applying linguistics to real life situations

Applied linguistiv will likely work in fields such as such language education, traslation or language policy.

An Applied linguist may also carry out research in first and second language acquisition in order to figure out effective and efficient ways to tech language in school settings.

Applied
