Linguistic landscapes refer to the visible representation of languages in public spaces, such as signs, advertisements, and inscriptions on buildings. This research area examines the relationship between language, culture, and society as reflected in the physical environment. Linguistic landscape studies often explore how languages are used and displayed in urban settings, how they shape collective identities and social interactions, and how they can reflect power dynamics and linguistic hierarchies within a given community. Researchers in this field analyze the visual aspects of language use in public spaces to uncover patterns of multilingualism, language contact, and language shift, and to gain insights into the complex interplay between language, identity, and space.
