Linguistics is that the science of language, which includes words, sounds, and the rules of grammar. Words in languages are limited, but sentences are infinite and build to the requirement for communication following certain rules of grammars. It is the creativity of human beings that the languages are set as per their requirement that makes better than the animal languages, which are essentially responses to stimuli. Linguistic creativity isn’t simply a property of outstanding people but an exceptional property for those people who can play with the languages.
