Linguistics Research

Linguistics is broadly defined as the systematic and scientific exploration of language in all its forms and manifestations.

Sociolinguistics investigates the relationship between language and society examining how social factors such as class gender and ethnicity influence language use. Psycholinguistics explores the cognitive processes that underlie language acquisition understanding and production providing insights into how humans process and utilize language. From a temporal perspective linguistics is categorized into synchronic and diachronic studies.
