(Lecture-42), Duality as a Property of Language, Charles F. Hockett

Duality is, in fact, one of the most economical features of human language. We, as humans, with a limited set of distinct sounds are capable of producing a very large number of sound combinations, morphemes, words, phrases and sentences which are distinct in meaning. The principle of duality as a property of language allows for immense flexibility and expressiveness in language. It's considered a fundamental characteristic that distinguishes human language from many forms of animal communication. 00:00 Introduction 00:14 Literal Meaning of Duality 00:49 Linguistic Concept of Duality 01:29 Duality at Primary Level (Sounds) 04:10 Duality at Secondary Level (Morphemes) 05:56 Duality at Secondary Level (Sentences) 07:54 Points to Remember 08:39 Conclusion
