Modern Linguistics that began in the form of philosophy towards the end of the eighteenth century is now much wider in scope. This book extensively deals with its two most important branches: Descriptive Linguistics and Historical Linguistics. The book written in a very simple and comprehensive language studies thoroughly the following topics in a very lucid manner: definition and scope of linguistics, nature of language, phonetics and phonology, morphophonemics and morphology, syntactic system, language families and their classification, language change, borrowing, writing systems. The book would prove highly useful to all the students of English Language in general and more particularly to the linguists, researchers, and teaching professionals.
