Question 2

Although language may be studied as an independent system, it is also important to look at in terms of what it tells us about society and culture.

When we focus on the relationship between language and culture of those who speak it and how they inform each other, we are doing:
 
  a. ethnolinguistics.
  b. descriptive linguistics.
  c. historical linguistics.
  d. glottochronology.
  e. frame substitution.
