Study Notes
Study of Grammar
- Main components include syntax (sentence structure), morphology (word formation), phonetics (sounds), and semantics (meaning).
Language Acquisition
- Fluent speakers primarily acquire rules of a language through immersion and exposure from native speakers rather than formal education.
Internalization of Language Rules
- Much of the internalization occurs during early childhood, allowing for the instinctual use of language without conscious thought.
Definition of Grammar
- The term 'grammar' also describes a system of rules that governs the structure of sentences in a language.
English Grammar
- 'English grammar' encompasses syntax, morphology, punctuation, and usage rules specifically pertaining to the English language.
Study of Chemistry
- Chemistry studies the composition, structure, properties, and changes of matter, focusing on substances and their interactions.
Components of Compounds
- Compounds are made of two or more elements chemically bonded together, forming distinct substances with unique properties.
Position of Chemistry
- Chemistry occupies a central position within the natural sciences, bridging physics, biology, environmental science, and material science.
Central Science
- Chemistry is sometimes called the central science due to its role in connecting and influencing other scientific disciplines and their theories.
Applications of Chemistry
- Applications include pharmaceuticals, agriculture, materials science, environmental protection, and energy production, affecting everyday life and industry.
