psycholinguistics investigates the interrelation of language and mind,in processing and producing utterances and in language acquisition for example.sociolinguistics is an umbrella term which covers a variety of different interests in language and society,including the social functions of language and the social characteristics of its users.in contrast with other linguists,then,anthropological linguists are interested primarily in the history and structure of formerly unwritten languages.they are concerned with the emergence of language and also with the divergence of languages over thousands of years.computational linguistics is an interdisciplinary field which centers around the use of computers to process or produce human language(also known as "natural language",to distinguish it from computer languages.)to this field,linguistics contributes an understanding of the special properties of language date,and provides theories and descriptions of language structure and use.Computer Science contributes theories and techniques for designing and implementing computer systems.心理语言学考察语言和意识的相互关系，如话语的处理和产生，以及语言习得等.社会语言学是一个很大的术语，它覆盖了大量有关语言和社会的问题，包括语言的社会功能和语言使用者的社会特征。
人类语言学与其它语言学相反，人类语言学家感兴趣的主要是早先无文字语言的历史和结构，他们关注语言的出现以及语言在千万年里的变化。计算机语言学是一跨学科的领域，它以计算机处理和产生人类语言（即自然语言，与计算机语言相区别）这一应用为中心。其中，语言学有助于理解语料的特定性质，并提供了有关语言的结构和使用的理论和描写；计算机科学则为设计和执行计算机系统提供理论和技术 |
