This introductory book covers almost all the major areas, domains, issues and aspects of general descriptive linguistics in a very lucid and simplified manner so that anyone interested in language and linguistics can easily gather some ideas about the discipline. The importance of the book lies in its elaborate presentation of information and data for general academic and referential purposes. The book is the first of its kind that tries to furnish new information and findings that are hardly presented before the students and scholars willing to know more about the general aspects of natural languages and linguistics. Since the level of the book is a general one, it does not include the findings of research and investigation, which are more complex in nature and which ask for specialized knowledge of the discipline as traced among the scholars baptized in the discipline called Linguistics. Rather, in simple term, this book includes simple descriptions and analyses of some notable findings and studies on the general areas of linguistics which can easily be liked by students of linguistics and general readers. In the present global scenario, there is hardly any book on general and descriptive linguistics which can be greatly useful for the undergraduate and postgraduate students of Linguistics of colleges and universities of India and other countries. This book is primarily written to address the needs of these learners. Thus, the target readers of this book are undergraduate and postgraduate students of Linguistics in India and similar countries. This book will also be useful for general readers who are interested in various aspects and properties of natural languages and linguistics. It can be highly referential for scholars and researchers working in various fields of general linguistics (e.g., descriptive linguistics, features of language, origin of language, branches of linguistics, functions of language, human and non-human communication, etc.). The students and teachers of Linguistics can use this book as a reference-cum-text book in classroom teaching.

The study maps thoroughly how different concepts and theoretical aspects of linguistics are applied in literary criticism. Diverse linguistic features are analyzed in literary criticism to highlight how they are used differently by poets and writers from the way they are commonly used. Since the early 20 th century, due to the influence of formalistic critical practice, it has been the common pursuits of the critics to enquire how special uses of linguistic elements contribute to achieve the literariness in a text. Further, it is interesting to note that that from the mid-20 th century linguistic codes and conventions have been appropriated as the paradigm in a number of Language in India www.languageinindia.com

A. COURSE OBJECTIVE After learning the topic of the linguistics and related disciplines, the students are able to know and understand about the close relationship between linguistics and other related disciplines. B. COURSE DESCRIPTION Linguists are not the only people interested in the study of language, anthropologists, philosophers, psychologists, and language teachers have long been interested in language, and linguistics has close ties with each of the other disciplines. These ties have been stronger at some times than others as interests change and as the influence of one discipline on another grow or diminishes. a. Linguistics and Anthropology It is clear that linguistics is linguistics is the study of language, not any particular language, but human language in general. It can be assumed that it lerns about how the language changes, how meaning is changed and others. Meanwhile, anthropology is the study of humans, past and present, that build knowledge from social sciences, biological sciences, humanities, and the natural sciences. Humans have one particular language, and the language in one group is a crucial window in culture. Linguistics and anthropology have close relationship in our daily life. The relationship between them is called as socio-cultural anthropology. The relationship between anthropology and linguistics can be seen from the following examples. Linguists usually conduct long periods of fieldwork living with people who speak the language they are studying. They examine language and the emotions; ritual and performance; language shift and multilingualism; connections between language, ethnicity, nationalism, and political systems. For example, linguists are interested in investigated the development of Baduy language; they investigate how they use their

The author has made an effort to introduce some new methods, ideas, and strategies for English Language Teaching, Dictionary Making, Translation, and Dialectology with direct utilization of data and information elicited from language corpora in English and Indian languages developed in digital form. The primary goal of this book is to train the new generation of Indian linguists in the utilization of language corpora in various works of applied linguistics. The book is enriched with references to recent works carried out in various parts of the world. This will help readers to know how novel approaches are being used to make valuable improvements over the traditional methods and techniques used in different branches of applied linguistics. The book is best suited to be used as text-cum-course book at undergraduate and postgraduate levels in Indian universities. It can also be used as a reference book by students, teachers, and researchers working in these areas of applied linguistics. Moreover, general people interested in these areas will find this book highly useful for new insights, methods, and information. The academic importance of this book may be attested to in its direct focus on the Indian contexts of applied linguistic research and development works. The book sincerely appeals to the people engaged in different branches of applied linguistics to redirect their focus towards this new approach for the benefit of the discipline as well as for better service to the country and its people.

Languages combine form and meaning in order to express an infinite number of ideas. Modern linguistics has developed sophisticated methods to probe the formal structure of languages from phonetics to syntax, but the study of meaning remains relatively unexplored. The lack of sophisticated methods to document the semantic structure of languages remains a significant problem for work with endangered languages. Research in semantics is limited by semantic theories that can be traced back to Plato and Aristotle. These theories assume that languages use a universal set of semantic elements to construct meaning. The classical theories cannot account for semantic change and an explanation of metaphor is completely beyond the scope of such theories. In this paper I propose a theory of semantics that puts metaphor at the center of semantics. Rather than create an artificial dichotomy between figurative and non-figurative language, the metaphorical approach to semantics assumes that all langu...
