Language change refers to the diachronic alteration of a language’s linguistic systems and conventions across time, including changes in phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, lexicon, and pragmatics. These alterations may involve the emergence, modification, or loss of linguistic forms and structures, as well as changes in their distribution and functions within a speech community ^[1][2]. Language change is examined through the comparison of linguistic forms across historical periods and the analysis of processes through which linguistic variation is transmitted and becomes established across generations ^[1][2].
