Linguistics is the study of language and examines many aspects including phonology, morphology, lexicology, syntax, semantics, and pragmatics. It recognizes that language exists through people and is still developing as a discipline. Sociolinguistics examines language variations and how language communicates ideas about others. Psycholinguistics studies how people use, misuse, and lose language over time. Applied linguistics applies insights from sociolinguistics and psycholinguistics to language teaching and learning. Stylistics analyzes linguistic variations and their appropriateness in literature.

3. THE STUDY OF LANGUAGE
Linguistic are interested in all the languages of the
word and in all the varieties that are found the
standart or non standart, the prestigious and the
stigmatised. They recognise that language cannot
exist in any full sense without people and they are
fully aware that, as a discipline, linguistics is still in
its infancy.

4. SOCIOLINGUISTICS
sociolinguistics examines variety in language and
has shown that language is not merely used to
communicate ideas but also communicate our
opinion of others and of ourselves

5. PSYCHOLINGUISTICS
Psycholinguistic have learnt a great deal and are
daily learing more about how we use, abuse and
lose language. They too have discovered the non
finite nature of language. Some problems have
been solve, but each solution has revealed how
little we really know about language and how much
more researche is needed

6. APPLIED LINGUISTICS
Recently, the insights gained in sosiolinguistics and
pyscholinguistic have been applied to language
teaching and learning. Courses in english for special
purposes (ESP) are based on the knowledge that native
speakers use language differently depending on
subjuect matter and audience .

7. STYLISTICS
Stylistic thus exploits our knowledge of linguistics
variety, our awareness of the appropriateness of
certain combination and provides us with the tools
necessary to deppen our awerness of literature. Its
is not, how ever and alternative to sensitive
intuition, but a means of exploring and reinforcing
such intuition

8. Summary
as we learn language, we learn to classify. We learn that
apples and oranges are fruits and that milk and water are
drink. In linguistic, we use language to classify language
and this is by no means an easy task . However scientific
we may try to be, we carry to our study many of the
experience and attitude we absored as we acquired our
mother tongue. Because of this we can never be as
objective about language as we can be about the object
we classify by means of language.
