Since then, an increasing body of research has contributed to the growth and professionalism of this multi- and cross-disciplinary field, with practitioners regularly undertaking forensic linguistic casework. Forensic Linguistics, broadly speaking, is the science of language analysis in a legal context and grounded in established linguistic theory, with practitioners applying linguistic knowledge and methodology to answering questions raised in legal contexts. Forensic linguistics can be seen as an area of applied linguistics in which techniques of linguistic analysis are applied to forensic situations and data. Linguistics involves the analysis of written texts or spoken interaction by describing and explaining the nature of the communication on a number of linguistic levels using a variety of interpretative tools, theories and methods. Forensic linguistics essentially takes the linguist's toolbox and applies it in forensic contexts where texts and speech samples are often unhelpfully short and few in number, in contrast to the large collections traditionally used in academic research" CN HV8073.5 SN 9781119614579 K1 Forensic linguistics K1 Aufsatzsammlung K1 Forensik : Linguistik : Textanalyse : Sprachanalyse : Englisch : Spanisch : Dänisch : Portugiesisch
