Question

What is an area of study?? Please help me! >.

Answer 1

I will be as simple as possible.

In short, area of study means a study of a political or geography area. That includes its languages, general cultures,etc...

For example if the area of study is France, you'll study about France cultures, its language so the French, the system of education --> everything about this area.

Hope this helps !
