3、pragmatics.语言学是研究语言的本质、结构和变化的科学，包括有语音学、音位学、形态学、句法学、语义学和语用学。Linguistic knowledge as represented in the speakers mind is called a grammar. Linguistic theory is concerned with涉及 revealing揭示 the nature of the mental grammar心理语法 which represents speakers knowledge of their language.语言学知识作为说话者大脑里的表述被称为语法。
4、语言学理论是关于揭示表述说话者语言知识的心理语法本质的学说。Grammar as viewed here is different from the usual notion概念 of grammar.语法在这里被视为不同于通常语法的概念。Grammar is the ability to use structures accurately精确地, meaningfully, and appropriately.语法是一种精确而富有意义的合适使用语言结构的能力。Phonetics语音学 provides the means for describing speech sound语音; phon

10、发现，拉丁语中这些方面相当的多，梵文或芬兰语中更是这样，然而英语中却发现极其的少，中文中甚至没有。Chinese and English, for example, may have the same case system as Latin, but the phonetic realization is different.

11、可能与拉丁文有相同的格位系统，但是语音实现却不同。此外，似乎很大程度上语言变体能简化为曲折系统性能。Normally human beings do not produce utterances for the sake of为了 the phonetic语音的, phonological音系的 and grammatical features语法特征. Utterances are produced because they convey meaning.通常人类不会为了语音、音系以及语法特征而产生表达。表达的产生是为了表达意义。Semantics as a subfield of ling
