<![CDATA[Linguistics also examines the relationship between language and the wider social context, including how language shapes and is influenced by structures of power, social status and culture. From the perspective of phonology, it explores the patterns of sounds in language and how they shape meaning and influence understanding and communication. Meanwhile, in morphology, attention is focused on the internal structure of words and the process of word formation in language. Syntax addresses the rules that govern how words are combined to form meaningful sentences. Semantics, on the other hand, focuses on the study of meaning and how meaning is derived in communication.
