The deeply study of a language
Which has
Two layers of form
Structure
Morphology
Morphemes
All the bits, the base and the affixes, are called morphemes
talks

Syntactic category

composed of smaller, meaningful units.
Two layers of meaning
Pragmatics
What is Pragmatics?
words and their uses
when we hear the word "mother", we think of our own mother
The pragmatic meaning of a sentence corresponds to the intention of what you want to achieve with the sentence. It answers to the question, why does the speaker say this?
Semantics
Connotation
associated, personal and subjective meanings
Denotation
Factual and objective meanings
Introduction to Semantics
A meaning which is very close to what you would ordinarily call literal meaning.

Phonetics studies the physical and physiological aspects of sounds, the way in which they vibrate in the air, the way I produce them using my articulatory organs.
Phonology
studies sounds as part of language.
Phonemes
meaningful on its own
there must be a mix of phonemes
for example
"Shorter"
two phonemes
"Short" is the first one
"-er" is the last one
#6 Introduction to Phonology
build up a meaningful either word, phrase or sentence

The study of sentences and their order, how sentences are formed out of words.
Word order
Japanese
