Overview of linguistics covering language nature, phonetics/phonology (sounds), morphology (words), syntax (sentences), semantics/pragmatics (meaning), variation, change, acquisition, and applied uses
This is a title slide titled "Language and Linguistics." Its subtitle outlines an overview of language's nature, systems, branches, and descriptive versus prescriptive approaches.
Overview of language nature, systems, branches, and descriptive vs. prescriptive approaches.
This slide, titled "Sounds of Language (Phonetics)," introduces key aspects of speech sounds and articulation. It covers vowels and consonants, phonetic symbols, and stress and intonation.
Phonology covers phonemes as abstract sound units with allophone variants, distinguished by minimal pairs. It also explains syllable structure (onset, nucleus, coda) and suprasegmental features like stress, intonation, and tone.
Word Formation in Morphology covers morphemes as the smallest units of meaning, including free and bound types. It details processes like inflection (adds grammar without changing word class), derivation (alters word class for new words), compounding (joins free morphemes), and affixation (adds prefixes, suffixes, or infixes to roots).
This slide on Sentence Structure (Syntax) outlines key elements like phrases, clauses, and sentence patterns. It also covers transformational grammar and the concepts of deep and surface structure.
This slide on Semantics distinguishes between meaning and sense while exploring lexical relations between words. It covers examples of synonymy and antonymy, plus ambiguity (multiple interpretations) and polysemy (related word senses).
Pragmatics examines how context shapes meaning beyond literal words, including speech acts that perform functions and concepts like presupposition (assumed facts) and implicature (implied meaning). Discourse analysis studies connected language use in context.
Language Variation covers dialects and accents as regional sound differences, plus registers and styles adapted to specific contexts. It also addresses sociolects and idiolects as social and personal varieties, alongside mutual influences between language and society.
The slide explores historical language change over time and its causes, such as sound shifts, borrowing, and social factors. It also outlines mechanisms and stages of first language acquisition in children, along with processes in second language learning.
This conclusion slide on "Applied Aspects of Language" lists key topics: Language & Communication, Teaching Methods, English as Global Language, and Language & Power. It closes by stating "Language shapes our world" and calls to "Apply insights daily."
