Of course I do, Alfred {*..*} You said earlier that "people are often lazy and interchange linguistic with spoken". I could be wrong but I think that linguistics is probably a subset within speech itself, which can then be broken down further into discrete areas such as semantics, pragmatics etc. This is what a speech and language therapist has to do when dealing with someone who has a communication disorder. My youngest son has autism so I have learned one or two things about speech and language development over the years.

I think you must've made a typo then...surely you can see that speech is a subset of linguistics, and not vice versa?...


I'm not really sure what the point of your post is though.
