Document Summary

Language- is a structured, shared, rule-governed, symbolic system for communicating. Phonology- the use of sounds to make meaningful syllables and words. Encompasses the rules and sequencing of individual speech sounds and how they are produced, depending on their placement in a syllable or word. Syntax: it provides rates for putting together series of words to form sentences. Acts as a bridge that takes sounds from words to form a sentence. Both are so important because it allows us to find meaning in things through word order. Grammar: is a formal representation of the implicit knowledge of a native speaker. Pre-morpheme: can act alone or with another word. Bound morpheme: an inflection, tend to be mastered in any order, in any oral language, in a particular order. Semantics: the study of the meaning of words and sentences. Morphology: is the system that governs the structure of words. Pragmatics: refers to the use of communication in contexts.
