What are the different levels of linguistic
analysis? Show the interdependence of the levels with examples.
1) Phonetics, Phonology This is the level of
sounds. One must distinguish here between the set of possible human sounds,
which constitutes the area of phonetics proper, and the set of
system sounds used in a given human language, which constitutes the area
of phonology. Phonology is concerned with classifying the sounds of
language and with saying how the subset used in a particular language is
utilised, for instance what distinctions in meaning can be made on the basis of
what sounds.
2) Morphology This is the level of words and endings,
to put it in simplified terms. It is what one normally understands by grammar
(along with syntax). The term morphology refers to the
analysis of minimal forms in language which are, however, themselves comprised
of sounds and which are used to construct words which have either a grammatical
or a lexical function.
Lexicology is concerned with the study of the lexicon
from a formal point of view and is thus closely linked to (derivational)
morphology...........................................................................
