Inquiry
Linguistics
Language as a system you can hear once you stop treating it as a window.
It meets teaching, anthropology, and the fieldwork of actually recording how people talk.
The skill transfers to editing, to language classrooms, and to anyone who writes instructions.
On an Interest Map, the line we most often letter beside linguistics reads “speech as a system.” It tends to meet anthropology, and education.
