Ferdinand de Saussure made seminal contributions to linguistics through his book Course in General Linguistics, which was compiled from his lecture notes by students after his death. He distinguished between synchronic and diachronic linguistics, langue and parole, and introduced key concepts like the signifier/signified relationship in signs, and syntagm and paradigm relations between signs. Saussure established linguistics as a formal science and laid the foundations for 20th century linguistic theory.

Structuralism is the name that is given to a wide range of discourses that study underlying structures of signification. Signification occurs wherever there is a meaningful event or in the practice of some meaningful action. Structuralism first comes to prominence as a specific discourse with the work of a Swiss linguist, Ferdinand de Saussure, who developed a branch of linguistics called "Structural Linguistics." Saussure died before he was able to publish his material but his material came to us by his students. The theory was still at a developmental stage then--and has remained in a developmental stage ever after.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2. COURSE IN GENERAL LINGUSITICS
(COURS DE LINGUISTIQUE GENERALE)
A compilation of his lecture
notes by Saussure’s former
students – Charles Bally and
Albert Sechehaye.
Published at Lausanne and
Paris in 1916.
3. Synchronic Linguistics VS Diachronic Linguistics
Synchronic linguistics
- Confines to the study of how a language is spoken by
a specified speech community at a particular point of
time
Diachronic linguistics
- Diachronic linguistics is the kind in which we study
the historical development of language through
different periods of time
4. Langue VS Parole
Langue
A system, an institution, a set of interpersonal rules and norms in
speech and writing.
Elements include the system of grammar, spellings, syntax and
punctuation.
Meaning is created in the arrangements of its elements and the
consequent relationships between these arranged elements.
Parole
An actual manifestation of langue.
The concrete use of the language, the actual utterances.
Although he spoke of a linguistics of parole that would
cover the phonetic side of language and the products of
individual will, Saussure made it clear that the linguistics
of langue is the essential, real linguistic, beyond the
reach of the individual will (John E. Joseph, 1995).
5. Semiology
The study of signs.
A general science of signs
To understand systematic regularities from which meaning is
derived.
The network of linguistics signs which constitute
langue is made up of the conjunction of
A signifier
A signified
6. Signifier and Signified
Signifier + Signified = Signs
The sign is the whole that results from the association of
the signifier with the signified..
The relationship between the signifier and the signified is
referred to as 'signification', and this is represented in the
Saussurean diagram by the arrows.
7. A sign is a recognizable combination of a signifier with a
particular signified.
For example, the word “Open”
A signifier : the word ‘Open’
A signified concept : the shop is open for business
8. Syntagm and Paradigm
Syntagmatic and paradigmatic control how sign
relate to each other
Syntagm- syntagmatic relationship is when signs
occur in sequence and operate together to form
meaning.
Paradigm- paradigmatic relationship is where an
individual signs can be replaced by one another.
9. The horizontal items have syntagmatic relationships
as they follow on from one another.
The vertical items have paradigmatic relationships
as in each column, items can be substituted for one
another.
