It analyzes the form, meaning and context of language and also involves the study of grammar and style. It also studies the sociocultural, historical and political factors that influence language. The variation of language across regions and societies is understood from the perspective of the cultural stages that are relevant to the evolution of language. These stages are pidgin, creole, dialect, discourse, standard language, lexicon and relativity. Linguistic structures result from the interplay of form and meaning. The sub-fields of linguistics that focus on the grammatical study of language are phonetics, morphology, syntax, semantics, pragmatics, semiotics and stylistics, among others. Applied linguistics has applications in the areas of translation, language education, language planning and lexicography. This book attempts to understand the multiple fields that fall under the discipline of linguistics and how such concepts have practical applications. It strives to be a valuable source of reference for all students of linguistics or anyone interested in language studies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sasha Ortega\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1682857387\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781682857380\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Willford Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/18\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 265\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.00w x 0.63d","brand":"Sasha Ortega","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46962668896511,"sku":"9781682857380","price":157.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9aa73b1f-9268-4558-bc2a-85d68375f9c7.jpg?v=1750652164","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/an-introduction-to-linguistics-sasha-ortega-9781682857380","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
