单词 philology
释义
philology
(once / 1945 pages)
n

Philology means the study of language. Not learning specific languages per se, but grammar and history, and how sounds and meanings change over time.
If you study philology, you don't need anyone to tell you that the word philology comes from the Greek philologia "love of learning." It's one of the words ending in -logy, which means "study." Think biology (life), archaeology (ancient things), psychology (the mind), sociology (society).
WORD FAMILY
philology: philological, philologist+/philological: philologically/philologist: philologists
