Lingüística

Lingüística, or linguistics, is the scientific study of language and its structure. It explores how languages are formed, how they function, and how they change over time. This includes examining sounds (phonetics), word formation (morphology), sentence structure (syntax), meaning (semantics), and language use in context (pragmatics). Linguists analyze different languages and dialects to understand universal principles and cultural diversity in communication. Ultimately, linguistics helps us understand the nature of human language, its role in society, and how it shapes our thinking and interactions.
