Stylistics (linguistics)

Stylistics is a branch of linguistics that is all about how people use words and how they can be used to make sentences more interesting or give them a certain tone (sad, funny, angry, etc.). It's like learning an art - like writing a poem or painting a picture - but instead of using colors, shapes, or music, you use words and sentence structures to create something beautiful. It's all about paying attention to what words you pick and how you put them together.
