While it may seem like a dry scientific field, stylistics is actually interesting because it examines how style affects things like making a book compelling to read, engaging in conversation with friends, and convincing others. Studying stylistics is important and valuable as it provides insights into how to use language in different contexts and avoid dull, matter-of-fact speech. It can also help with comprehending foreign languages.

    Why am I fond of Stylistics? Stylistics What is in this word?

    It belongs to neutral stratum of the language: no emotions, no colour just science, a branch of linguistics. Nothing interesting? Lets see WHAT IS your favourite book, youre longing to read during a busy day, and when the latest hour in the evening comes, you devour the story from the book? WHAT IS your chatting with friends? WHAT IS your serious talk to the parents when you need some money to add for your holiday journey? Besides, youll be successful and able to get your aim, only if youre convincing enough. So, WHAT IS it all surrounding you every day? Its language which is expressed in the speech. No matter, oral or written. The way of expressing your thoughts and feelings is more important. It is what we call a style. Its the style of the language that makes you fall in love with some book. Its the style of the language that makes you the life and soul of the party. Its the style of the language that makes you successful in your deals. Thus it is impossible not to be fond of Stylistics which studies zest of the language and all the ways of avoiding dry and matter-of-fact speech. Especially valuable it is in comprehension of foreign languages.
