మానవశాస్త్రం Anthropology

అర్థశాస్త్రం Economics

My view: ‘Over the ages, several economists have contributed to the field. Like any other field, economists do differ in their views and this is more apparent because economics plays an important role in the well-being of the humanity, governance, growth of nations, and future of our interconnected world. However, this contributes to the growth of the field and results in new theories and branches. Hence, economics continues to evolve.’ What can I contribute to this important field? The answer is amongst those listed.

భాషాశాస్త్రం మరియు భాషలు Linguistics and Languages

Linguistics refers to the study of languages. There are various aspects such as syntax (rules), morphology (form), phonology and phonetics (sounds), semantics (meanings), and pragmatics (use). There are numerous language families. Language families are further classified into various categories. The naming of language families evolves with research in linguistics. Pronunciation of some familiar alphabets may differ in various languages. _{Some good news for linguists, researchers, multilinguals, and language enthusiasts: The number of classical languages in India now stand at 11 after the October 2024 inclusion of five more languages (Assamese, Bengali, Pali, Prakrit, and Marathi. The earlier recognized classical languages include Kannada, Malayalam, Odia, Sanskrit, Tamil, and Telugu). Further, seven writing systems namely, Kirat Rai (used for Bantawa language spoken in Sikkim and Nepal), Ol Onal (used for Bhumij language, an Austroasiatic language spoken in eastern India), Sunuwar (used for Sunuwar language spoken in Sikkim and Nepal), Gurung Khema writing system (used for Gurung language, a Sino-Tibetan language spoken in Nepal), Tulu-Tigalari (used for Tulu language, a Dravidian language spoken in Karnataka and the writing script is known to have been in use in South India since ancient times), Todhri (used for writing the Albanian language, an Indo-European language),} _{and Garay (used for Wolof, a Niger-Congo language spoken in Senegal) have been included in Unicode Standard, Version 16.0.0 as announced in September 2024.}
