 Study of Language 

A. Study of Language We know abot language early, because everyday we use language for communication to another people, but do we know the meaning of language? Of course we did not about the meaning because there are so many interprate about language. There are many question about meaning of language,but there is no answer can quence our question about language too. People from the past tried to find the meaning of language. But , the answer from them is just from speculated and some reasoning that not logic, and the result is not assepted by modern scholars. The modern scholars said that study in the past is not undscintific. Because they think that language which produced by human in the past just from man’s that imitate sound is his environment, but they can’t imitate easily because imitate sound of nature is not easy. They have ti practice continuosly and never give up and finally from hard work they can imitate the sound perfectly. Finally they relize that function of language is to communicate or conveying besasge. The theory above called “bow- wow” theory. The theory pooh- pooh, the oother teory of language that said language created by human sudden and unexpected situation or condition, and the human repeated it continuosly until they can use the sudden language as a signal or way to communicate to another people. The science not accept that theory because the the theory just from speculation not from observation, and also from hypothetical. The theiry is also not based on actual and factual observation of the subject- matter, so is not scientific. Heredotus observation about two little babies from egipt that isolated from their society and he want to know what the first language will be spoken from the babies, but the bservation by heredotus is not accepted because maybe he just use babies from egipt and not another babies in the world, but not that the matter, the matter is heredotus not use all of requirement about something observation can be called scientific. But, in my opinion I think that study of language in the past is can be called scientific. It has use one of criteria can be called scientific, like use observation and object. They use observation to imitate the sound of rainfall or pain dog or the sound of nature, it same I think in the observation. 

B. Study of Language as Science Linguistic called science because it has the requirement to be called scientific. There are fives requirement of science : 
1.     1. The subject matter of a science should be clearly defined in such a way that it is clearly separated from the rest of the univers; 
2.     The observation and investigation of the subject matter should be carried out objectively without involving the subjective and personal attitude of the investigator, the description of it, which is based on the result of investigation, should likewise be objective. 
3.     Generalizations of obserserved facts will lead to the inductive estabilishment of the so- called ‘ laws’, which should be verifiable by any competent observe. The validity of these laws has to be tested by applying them to that part of the data not used in forming the generalizations. 
4.     Statement on the result of investigation should be arranged in a systematized form so that it will be easy for other people to read and study. 
A science is never static, it always considers its findings and its estabilished laws, and is ready to change or modify them when they are refused by additional data or by new findings. Different place and different people have different interpretation and understanding about the language. There are any differences about the language and the system communication. The first the subject clearly defined, maybe here the subject is not imagine or abstract, so we can describe it. The second, should be objectively not based on our mind. Third, not only one subject. Fourth, systematic of course begin from early . Fifth, grow up every era and never static in one understanding. C. The Relevance Of Linguistics There is any different aim or goal between Linguistic with language theaching, if we will combine them into one place it was impossible to do, linguistic want to find out how linguistic works and and want to describe it in the possible way and best way. 

Linguistic is not relevant with language theaaching because language theaching in is more complex before. And it has three main stands: 

  • theoretical contributions from linguistics, psycologi and social theory, 
  •  methodelogi and teaching technique, 
  • aids and equipment. Theacher of course know about usage of language more than students, increaseness of language should make a theacher more competent in his job. With linguistic we can understand more details, and it also useful for inexpected teachers. Linguistics also source of assumptionit has to put on the teaching situation and also combine between method and learner because them is same important. The most important is theacher has to make allies with linguistics and everythings is gonna allright
