Linguistics From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search For the journal, see Linguistics (journal) Linguistics is the science and philosophy of language . It approaches language through meaning discourse semiotics (or social signification), as well as through existing narrative and grammatical structures. The recent study of semiotics and discourse have introduced linguistics to the more metaphysical and sociological perspectives available today, making it open to a wide range of inter-disciplinary subjects and approaches within the realm of the human sciences . Someone who engages with language is often called a linguist The potential of linguistics lies in its possibilities for comparing cultural usages in order to explore lingual trends and social constructs. It explores histories to arrive at universals , and it examines the aesthetics of various styles in these literary and cultural discourses. It also attempts to account for the development of specific words and utterances through the way they have been used. Linguistic inquiry may be pursued through a variety of intellectual disciplines. Although mainstream trends have attempted to make the field an exclusive one

It endeavours to answer the questionwhat is language and how is represented in the mind? Linguists focus on describing and explaining language and are not concerned with the prescriptive rules of the language (ie., do not split infinitives). Linguists are not required to know many languages and linguists are not interpreters. The underlying goal of the linguist is to try to discover the universals concerning language. That is, what are the common elements of all languages. The linguist then tries to place these elements in a theoretical framework that will describe all languages and also predict what can not occur in a language. Linguistics is a social science that shares common ground with other social sciences such as psychology, anthropology, sociology and archaeology. It also may influence other disciplines such as english, communication studies and computer science. Linguistics for the most part though can be considered a cognitive science. Along with psychology, philosophy and computer science (AI), linguistics is ultimately concerned with how the human brain functions.

The department is known for its interdisciplinary research, spanning many subfields of linguistics, as well as integration of theory, corpus research, field work, and cognitive and computer science. The department has both a graduate Ph.D. program and an undergraduate major and minor . The research interests of our faculty can be read about in the research section. Linguistics is the scientific study of human language, from the sounds and gestures of speech up to the organization of words, sentences, and meaning. Linguistics is also concerned with the relationship between language and cognition, society, and history. The Penn Working Papers in Linguistics volume 14.1, Proceedings of the 31st Annual Penn Linguistics Colloquium, is now available online on the PWPL website . It is our second volume to be published as a free-access online publication.

Specific research questions include: How can the brain a highly structured network of neurons support thought and language? How do the specific neural structures of the human brain shape the nature of thought and language? How are language and thought related to other neural systems, including perception, motor control, and social cognition? What are the computational properties of neural systems?

The MIT Linguistics Group has been engaged in the study of language since the 1950's. Our research aims to discover the rules and representations underlying the structure of particular languages and what they reveal about the general principles that determine the form and development of language in the individual and the species. The program covers the traditional subfields of linguistics (phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, and psycholinguistics) as well as interfaces with philosophy and logic, speech science and technology, computer science and artificial intelligence, and study of the brain and cognition.  April 19, 2008: MIT undergraduate linguistics majors and enthusiasts have just formed the MIT LInguistics Society June 11, 2007: A Biographical Memoir of Kenneth Hale , by Morris Halle and Norvin Richards has recently appeared.

The Department of Linguistics is home to one of the oldest and most distinguished linguistics programs in the United States. Many avenues of linguistic research are pursued at Harvard, all against the backdrop of a firm commitment to modern linguistic theory. The Department emphasizes the inseparability of theoretical and empirical work, and the interrelatedness of diachronic and synchronic approaches to the study of language. Much of the strength of Linguistics at Harvard derives from the unique range and depth of the University's offerings in related disciplines, especially ancient and modern languages and the growing Mind, Brain, and Behavior Program. A matchless linguistic collection is housed in the University Library. Information for undergraduate concentrators can be found here.
