Question

what might be some of the difficulties linguists encounter because they use speech as the primary data for finding out the grammatical rules of a language?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Linguists only get to define technical linguistic terms in a technical linguistic context, like, for example,the fact that there are only two tenses in English, instead of the 6 or 12 or 67 that one might have been told about in what we laughingly call "grammar school". Or like Matthews' distinctions between three different senses of word. i helps
