the 19th century to emphasize the difference between a Philology is a branch of Linguistics that studies
newer approach to the study of language that was then language change and language relationship
developing and the more traditional approach of
philology. The differences were and are largely matters
of attitude ,emphasis, purpose, and approaches
LINGUSTICS
BACKGROUND
Franz Boas (1858-
Scholars such as Jacob Grimm (1 785-1 863), Franz Bopp 1942), in addition to being a sociocultural pioneer
(1791-1867). and August Schleicher (1821-1868) had anthropologist, was also
reconstructed what appeared to be the among the first to apply the comparative method to the
Proto_IndO_Eur0pean language. study of Native
American languages.

4. Other disciplines
It studies how dialects differ between groups separated
Sociolinguistics by certain socialvariables, such as: asethnicity, religion,
status, gender, level of education, age
It’s a discipline
Psycholinguistics

interpret them
It is also known as natural language processing.
is a branch of artificial intelligence that deals with
analyzing, understanding and generatíng the languages
Computational
that humans use naturally in order to interface with
Linguistics computers in both written and spoken contexts using
natural human languages intead of computer languages.

5. Anthropological
Linguistics lt deals with the relation ship between language
and culture
lt focuses on the functions of language in our
societies, especially : characterized by the deep
Socio—Ethnic differences of class, ethnicity, gender and
Linguistics generation in order to promote research into
multilingual and muticultural wealth that allows us
to advance in the building of intercultural
citizenship
It provides the theoretical and descriptive
Applied Linguistics foundations for the investigation and solution of
(AL) language-related problems, especially those of
language educations

6. CONTRASTIVE or
COMPARATIVE
LINGUISTICS?
Some terminological remark
are needed
COMPARATIVE Originally Know as comparative
LINGUISTICS philogy is a branch of historical
or diachronic linguistics
Certainly studies , analyzes,
and compares two or more
CONTRASTIVE languages descriptively in order
INGUISTICS to find out similarities and
differences among them during
the language learning process

7. FUNDAMENTALS FOR TEACHING CL
Carl James states that CL is a
relevant and rewarding study
area for certain types of student
CONTRASTIVE LLNGULSTICS SYLLABUS
The exposition of CL proceeds level—by-level, and the
traditional three levels :
Lexis: (language, terminology: terms, expressions.)
Sound: (utterances)
Syntax: (grammar, sentence structure. language rules)

8. CONTRASTIVE PRAGMATICS
it is “the study of the ability of natural language speakers to
communicate more than that which is explicitly stated.
The ability to understand another speaker’s intended meaning
is called pragmatic competence
METHODOLOGY OF CONTRASTIVE LINGUISTICS
The fundamental technique of contrastive linguistics is to
match up tolanguages by using a technique known as the
contrastive method. In principle, every difference or similarity
between two or more related languages should be explicable in
terms of isolation or context analysis
THE ROLE OF CORPORA
 It supplies references to descriptions of linguistic phenomena
in the students’ mother tongue
It recognizesand usesthe IPA conventional register
It develops listening decoding and transcription notation.
It does transfer analysis among languages to bring into play
corrective phonology

9. LANGUAGE
Languageis an arbitrary,’ structured system of
utterances—sounds, gestures, signs, and
movements, written symbols, morphemes,
words and sentences used for human
communication

accepted by Linguists, Phonetitians,Language
Teachers and currently dictionary makers. This
alpahbet was created by the International
Phonetic Association (Whose original
members were language teachers in France in

first
Version in 188. It has the acronym IPA

language by indicating only the significat pronounce properly thestressed syllables in words.
and underlying sounds (phonemes) that
make up a word
NARROW TRANSCRIPTION: It is written
between square brackets (phonetic bracket): []
