  1. synchronic linguistics

    Synchronic linguistics is a branch of linguistics that focuses on the study of a language at a particular point in time, often the present, without considering its historical context or development. It analyzes the structure and usage of language at a single time period, viewing it as an interconnected system in static form. This approach contrasts with diachronic linguistics, which studies the evolution and changes in language over time.
