]A linguistic is the scientific study of language and its structure, including the study of grammar, syntax, and phonetics. We have various type of linguistics. They include linguistic in English, linguistic in French , linguistic in Yoruba, Linguistic in Efik and among others. A person who studies a language is called a linguist. Hence if I study French or English I am a linguist[/quote]
It's Linguistics is the scientific study of language. Not linguistic. Don't massacre the course if you don't know it's a big error to omit the S

[s]Obviously, the tone in which you wrote with doesn't require exclamation mark, and more especially, your last statement. A full stop would've done justice[/s].
What tone, dear? Tones are named. So, what tone?

Since you know the tone of my sentence, name it. If you can't name it, you can't say the exclamation mark was abused.

I see that you want to justify yourself by claiming I don't know the tone you used. Now to you, which tone did you actually use? Screaming, Surprise, disgust, awe, and any other you know of?

From those sentences, being a reply to an earlier post, none of the aforementioned tones should've been used. But if you think otherwise, tell me which you used then we can continue this conversation from there. Goodnight.

So, months back while in my friend's room, her room mate asked a question and it goes; "A person who studies/studied English language is called what? Well, I said he/she is a linguist, and she asked if I was sure. Told her to check on google, but she said she couldn't find the answer to it on google. Just this night, I remembered to ask a linguist in my room the same question, and she said I was wrong as studying a language doesn't make one a linguist, but she can't answer the question. Where are my English and Literature students? What's a person who studies/studied English Language called?
