Discourse analysis is a research approach that studies how language is used in real contexts to construct meaning, social relations, and identities. It examines spoken and written texts, their structures, and the situations in which they occur. Researchers look at patterns such as vocabulary, grammar, interactional moves, and narrative structures, as well as broader social factors like power, ideology, and culture. Discourse analysis is applied in many fields, including sociology, communication studies, education, and media studies, to reveal how language shapes and reflects social realities and influences people’s perceptions and actions.
