The answer is<u> "historic linguistics".</u>


Historical linguistics is the study of not just the historical backdrop of dialects, as the name suggests, yet additionally the investigation of how dialects change, and how dialects are identified with each other. It may appear at first this would be a somewhat dull, uneventful field of study, yet that is a long way from reality.

The principle job of historical linguists is to figure out how dialects are connected. By and large, dialects can be appeared to be connected by having a substantial number of words in like manner that were not acquired (cognates). Languages regularly obtain words from each other, however these are typically not very hard to differentiate from different words.

alexira [117]

Answer:

Bishop in Greek stands for Overseer

Explanation:

The word Bishop is<em> episkopos</em> in Greek and it means, overseer. The office of the Bishop in Christianity serves the purpose of teaching the laity, leading them, and shepherding the Church of God. The Catholics, Orthodox, and Anglican believers hold that the office of the Bishop or whoever they deem fit to be ordained as a Bishop has a lineage or ancestry that can be traced to any of the twelve apostles.

The Protestant churches however, simply believe that whoever they ordain as a Bishop has attained a scope of spiritual maturity that qualifies him as such.
