GDB Solution 2020 Sec Smester

This document contains sample responses for two courses - ENG509 and ENG510 - at GDB (presumably a university). For ENG509 Morphology, the response defines morphology as the study of word formation and structure, and argues that morphology is a fundamental course because it helps understand spelling, vocabulary, speech patterns and the origins of complex words in English. For ENG510 Sociolinguistics, the responses discuss two concepts - language variation, which is important for understanding different cultural communication styles; and dialects, which lead to curiosity about differences in language. One response also discusses code-switching in Pakistani society, arguing that multilingual Pakistanis switch codes for various communicative and social purposes.

'Morphology' is the study of form(s). Linguistically speaking, morphology
refers to the 'mental system involved in word formation'; it deals with words,
their internal structure, and how they are formed. Looking at the defining
elements of morphology, write a brief note on the significance of morphology
as a fundamental course.
Significance Of Morphology:
Morphology is the logical study of the shapes and types of the words and the study of the inner
structure of words and the cycle of word development. The subject and the subject of
morphology encourages in a few different ways to dominate the language including spelling,
jargon, familiarity, word acknowledgment, elocution, structure of complex words, text
perception, the beginning of words as "English is an especially captivating language to study,
since its set of experiences of acquiring from different dialects has left it with a tremendous
assortment of morphemes, not all of which actually have implications that are conspicuous
without response to a word reference, etc. Hence the language appears to be common and
unconstrained. Morphology as a significant degree of semantic investigation assumes an
impressive function in creating and building a large number of English words. English
determines countless words consistently from all the dialects of the world and morphology gives

you a thought regarding the wellspring of the words with rules and guidelines on the most
proficient method to shape new words.

OR
"Morphology has its own organizing principles, distinct from those of syntax, phonology,
and the lexicon. Too many morphology textbooks and helping materials obscure this
fascinating fact." Being a student of the course "Morphology and Syntax', what is your
ultimate guide to the morphological concepts? Defend your choice.
Language is included sounds, words, expressions and sentences. At the word level, morphology
alludes to the structure and development of words. Morphology abilities require an arrangement
and utilization of the suitable structure of a word, for example, word roots, prefixes, and joins. It
is the study of words, how they are shaped, and their relationship to different words in a similar
language. It dissects the structure of words and parts of words, for example, stems, root words,
prefixes, and postfixes. Morphology additionally takes a gander at grammatical forms, pitch and
stress, and the manners in which setting can change a word's articulation and significance.
Morphology varies from morphological typology, which is the arrangement of dialects
dependent on their utilization of words, and lexicology, which is the study of words and how
they make up a language's vocabulary. While words, alongside clitics, are commonly
acknowledged just like the littlest units of sentence structure, in many dialects, if not all,
numerous words can be identified with different words by decides that on the whole portray the
syntax for that language.

The subject of Sociolinguistics includes different concepts language variations, code
switching, code mixing, dialects e.g. register, and sociolinguistic aspects of language in
Pakistan. Discuss any two concepts that you like the most along with the reason.
I like the most language variation because it is considered important in language teaching
because its contribution of cultural values regards to the different ways of using the language
functions or other aspects of language like vocabulary, pronunciation and so far so forth. So that
students know how to adjust themselves while interacting in intercultural communication in
order to maintain politeness and avoid miscommunication. Variability is inherent in human
language: a single speaker will use different linguistic forms on different occasions, and different
speakers of a language will express the same meanings using different forms. Most of this

variation is highly systematic: speakers of a language make choices


in pronunciation, morphology, word choice, and grammar depending on a number of non-
linguistic factors. These factors include the speaker's purpose in communication, the relationship
between speaker and hearer, the production circumstances, and various demographic affiliations
that a speaker can have. Secondly I like the topic dialects as it is any variety of a language
characterized by systematic differences in pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary from other
varieties of the same language. So differences make me curious. Everyone speaks a dialect in
fact, many dialects at different levels.

OR
Why do you think people code switch in different situations? Discuss with reference to the
Pakistani society.
Pakistan is a socially close-knit, multilingual society where a major population is either bilingual
or multilingual. A large population speaks local languages as their mother tongue; Urdu as the
national language and educated Pakistanis also know English, which is language of academia.
The multilingual speakers switch from one language to another to achieve communicative goals.
There are many reasons and situations under which young Pakistanis mix and switch English or
other codes in their speech, i.e to convey the message effectively, to influence the listener, to
pose better social status, to exclude third person, while forgetting any term in one language,
while quoting someone’s exact words, while some alternate term is not present in one language,
while getting emotional, while showing their extreme annoyance with someone, because of
liking the language, because of motivation to do so as they find majority of people around the
globe doing so, because of the need of the hour.
