APPLIED LINGUISTICS

Applied Linguistics have some connection with language teaching.

Brumfit definition: definition of applied linguistics will then be the theoretical and empirical investigation of real-world problems in which language is a central issue
LANGUAGE LEARNING

The journal Language Learning: A Journal of Applied Linguistics, published from the University of Michigan, is an important chronicle of the development of applied linguistics over the past sixty years (Catford 1998).

spoke of fundamental issues in language learning, such as multilingualism, language acquisition, second and foreign language education, literacy, culture, cognition, pragmatics and intergroup relations.

There are voices insisting that applied linguistics should fulfil a role wider than language teaching (for example Kaplan 1980a).

in the 1960s and 1970s that applied linguistics was about language teaching.

Definiton

Applied linguistics is to search and find ways of solving practical, in various fields: in the teaching and learning of languages, translation, pathologies of language, The integration of new technologies, language planning, among others.

there are important and continuing distinctions between general or theoretical linguistics and applied linguistics. They may be summarised by:
• the immediate and the distant, with applied linguistics concerned with the former; and • the need to expand to other disciplines because of the involvement of factors outside the scope of language.

Applied linguistics is clearly multi-factorial in that in addition to linguistics, it draws on other disciplines, psychology, sociology, education, politics and so on. Ironically, as has become clear in the last period, linguistics also needs to do the same and cannot isolate itself from the daily uses of language.
