It deals with the scientific study of language, with career opportunities ranging from freelancing to working for the Government. In today\u2019s world, communication and interaction are at the heart of most careers, hence, it does not come as a surprise that the field is rapidly growing.\u00a0 In the last ten years, the language services market has doubled from 23.5 billion dollars to 49.6 billion dollars and is still growing, owing to globalization. The market offers a diverse range of services like localization, instruction and translation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While many people believe that a linguist can speak multiple languages which is true for many linguists, the career is not just limited to that. Linguistics provides an understanding of how cultural interaction, society and human development are shaped by the complexities of language, the relationship between language and thought and the principles underpinning human languages.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The field includes:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Study of the context, structure and usage of language.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Looks at the nature of the language used in communication.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Studies how languages are written and spoken accurately.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Identifies properties and elements common among different languages.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Looks at how languages change over time and language variations.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How the brain processes and stores language, particularly in the early years.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Linguistics also consists of a number of sub-areas, namely, phonetics (study of speech sounds), phonology (study of systems and patterns of speech sounds), morphology (study of word form or structure), syntax (study of grammar and sentence structure), and pragmatics (study of context of language and its meaning).<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Linguistics has a significant impact and contributes to multiple fields like artificial intelligence, sociology, education, philosophy, psychology, among others.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Educational Requirements<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In both national and international domains, linguistics is emerging as one of the most sought after careers.
