| Citazioni | In fact the technical names for the various parts or ʻlevelsʼ of language correspond quite closely to those recognized in everyday ʻfolk linguisticʼ terminology:
phonology is the level of sound (pronunciation)
orthography “ writing (pronunciation and spelling)
grammar (ʻlexicogrammarʼ) “ wording
semantics “ meaning. [...] in the functional tradition in linguistics the terms used for the levels, or ʻstrataʼ, of a language – the stages in the coding process from meaning to expression – are semantics, grammar, and phonology. |
