Sociolinguistics is a subfield of applied linguistics. Applied linguistics is concerned with identifying, investigating, and solving language-related real-world issues. The difference between sociolinguistics and linguistics is that linguistics makes us aware of the structure of language, while sociolinguistics explains how we interact with each other using this structure in everyday situations. Linguistics is the scientific study of language, with the goal of conducting systematic research into the qualities of specific languages as well as the characteristics of language in general. It includes not only the study of sound, grammar, and meaning, but also the history of language families, how infants and adults learn languages, how language usage is processed in the mind, and how it is related to race and gender. Sociolinguistics is the descriptive study of the impact of any or all parts of society on language and how it is used, including cultural norms, expectations, and context. It may overlap with linguistic sociology, which studies the impact of language on society. Sociolinguistics is the discipline of linguistics that analyzes only those features of language and languages that require reference to social, including contextual, elements in order to be explained. While sociolinguists are generally interested in the link between social characteristics and intra-language variation, anthropological-linguistic studies are concerned with the relationship between cultural elements and cross-linguistic variance. The study of the relationship between language and society is known as sociolinguistics.
