Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Anthropological linguistics is the study of the history, function, and physiology of language. It focuses on the relationships between language and culture, as well as how language is used to communicate social identity, values, and beliefs. It is not specifically concerned with prehistoric peoples or human evolution, although these may be studied within broader anthropological contexts. Similarly, while an understanding of a people's religious system may be important to cultural anthropologists, it is not the primary focus of anthropological linguistics.
