In linguistics, "roles" typically refers to semantic or grammatical roles that participants take in an event or situation described by a sentence. Common examples include Agent (the doer of an action), Patient (the entity affected by the action), Experiencer, Instrument, and others. These roles help explain how meaning is structured and how words in a sentence relate to each other. In broader usage within language and discourse analysis, roles can also indicate the functions that words, phrases, or participants have in communication, such as speaker, listener, or referent, helping to clarify relationships and responsibilities in interaction.
