Linguistic Attribute

A linguistic attribute refers to a specific characteristic or feature used to describe or analyze language and its components. This can include elements such as phonetics (sounds), syntax (sentence structure), semantics (meaning), and morphology (word formation). Essentially, it’s a way to identify and categorize different aspects of language to better understand how it functions, varies, or is used in communication. Think of it as a detailed attribute that helps linguists study languages systematically, similar to how a scientist examines different features of a biological specimen.
