It centers on analyzing both the form and the meaning of language, along with its context, particularly exploring the interaction between sound and meaning. Syntax, semantics, phonetics, and morphology are some of the major subfields within the domain of linguistics. The study of speech and non-speech sounds is denoted by phonetics, wherein the acoustic and articulatory properties of these sounds are examined. Syntax is the field of study that concentrates on the rules, principles, and processes governing the structure of sentences within a language. Morphology is the branch of study concerned with the formation of words and their relationships with other words within a given language. Semantics addresses both the linguistic and philosophical aspects of language meaning, along with exploring the relationship between signifiers and signified concepts. This book aims to shed light on some of the unexplored aspects of linguistics. It presents the complex subject of linguistics in the most comprehensible and easy to understand language. It will prove to be immensely beneficial to students and researchers in this field." -- Back cover Overview of linguistics -- Core principles in linguistics -- Specializations within linguistics -- Theoretical foundations of linguistic study -- Analysis and description in linguistics -- Practical applications of linguistic theory.
