Anthropological linguistics

Anthropological linguistics is the study of how language works and changes over time in different cultures. It looks at how language is used in different societies and how people communicate with each other. It studies how language affects our lives and how it shapes our identities and cultures. For example, anthropological linguistics looks at how different languages shaped cultures in the past, how language is used differently in different parts of the world, how language is used differently in different social groups, and how language may be changing now.
