	Who Needs Applied Linguistics? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Unfortunately, most members of applied linguistics culture occupy positions where there is little social congruence between their activities and the everyday experience of their counterparts (for whom they write) in the EFL classroom.
		Applied linguistics too often ignores the circumstantial peculiarities of classrooms, individual students and the uniqueness and complexity of their local situation.
		It is in avoiding such limitations that applied linguistics has its greatest validity; it serves to awaken the teacher to the enormous variety of language use and the wide range of alternatives for classroom activities.

	Linguistics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

		Applications of computational linguistics in machine translation, computer-assisted translation, and natural language processing are extremely fruitful areas of applied linguistics which have come to the forefront in recent years with increasing computing power.
		Linguists working in Optimality Theory state generalizations in terms of violable rules, which is a greater departure from mainstream linguistics, and linguists working in various kinds of functional grammar and Cognitive Linguistics tend to stress the non-autonomy of linguistic knowledge and the non-universality of linguistic structures, thus departing importantly from the Chomskian paradigm.

		I believe that a theory of ("language" in) mind and society/social-developmental processes - as supplied by "Cognitive" Linguistics - is an interesting corollary to, but no replacement for an empirical understanding of the (English) language as (attested) fact: the forms themselves are more or less arbitrary, but there is a systematicity in their use.
		Applied Linguistics, on the other hand, concerned theories of second language acquisition and a history of the methodologies (it was just an option and only skimmed the surface), which was much more relevant.
