English Language and Linguistics

English Language and Linguistics is the study of how the English language works—its sounds, structure, meaning, and usage. It involves examining pronunciation (phonetics), grammar, vocabulary, and the way language changes over time. Linguists analyze patterns and rules that govern language, helping us understand communication, regional differences, and how language shapes our thinking. This field combines science and humanities to explore language’s role in society, cognition, and identity, providing insights into how we create, understand, and influence words and conversations daily.
