1. During the 19th century, linguists deduced that many languages that they studied were related to one another.

2. Saussure had a major impact on the development of linguistic theory in the first half of the 20th century with his notions becoming incorporated in the central tenets of structural linguistics. His main contribution to structuralism was his theory of a two-tiered reality about language.

3. Discovery, in the law of common law jurisdictions, is a pre-trial procedure in a lawsuit in which each party, through the law of civil procedure, can obtain evidence from the other party or parties by means of discovery devices such as interrogatories, requests for production of documents, requests for admissions.

4. Generative grammar claims that only its reconstructed formal systems explain natural language, and reduces descriptive grammar to a taxonomic role of literally 'describing' language, without explaining it.

5. Both "explicit" and "implicit" are adjectives, commonly used in English, both in two different contexts. "Explicit" refers to something very exact, very clearly explained in the first place.
