What is language?
This person studies how humans achieve language, determine the language rules that are used in communication and deduce the rules of language from the patterns demonstrated when humans interact with with one another

What is phonemes?
The 5 components of language
What is semantics, syntax, morphology, phonology, and pragmatics?

What is microculture?
The 3 aspects of communication that can enhance or change the linguistic code.
What is paralinguistic, nonlinguistic, and metalinguistic codes?
This person studies the way people acquire and study language
Who is/what is psycholinguists?
These are 4 physiological speech processes that are highly complex and require coordination
What is respiration, phonation, resonation, and articulation?
This "system" in language is a productive and creative tool, words can be combined in a variety of ways
What is generative system?
This refers to language differences as well as speech differences
What is dialect?
These are 4 main suprasegmental device examples under paralinguistic cues
What is intonation, stress/emphasis, speed/rate of delivery, and pause/hesitation?
This is the study of language, culture, and situational influences that impact language and communication
What is sociolinguistics?
The definition of language
What is a system of arbitrary symbols and rule governed structures, that are learned?
The bound morpheme in madly and madness
What is "ly" and "ness"?
The "approach" where each dialect has a different relative status based on similarity with the ideal. (Those closer to the idealized standard are considered to be better.)
What is deficit approach?
The language users underlying knowledge about the system of rules
What is linguistic competence?
The 3 groups of professionals who are interested in language
What is linguist, psycholinguist and sociolinguist?
The definition of communication.
What is an active and collaborative process of exchanging info, ideas, needs, desires, or messages between participants?
The aspect of language concerned with the rules that govern the structure, distribution, and sequencing of speech sounds and the shape of syllables
What is Phonology?
The "approach" where each dialect has an equally valid rule system and no value is placed on a dialect
What is sociolinguistic approach?
The linguistic rule system that governs the structure of the word forms from basic elements of meaning
What is morphology?
