Michael Halliday

Michael Halliday was a pioneering British linguist renowned for developing Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL), a framework that explores language as a social semiotic system. His work emphasizes how language functions in context to make meaning, highlighting its role in communication, interaction, and social structure. Halliday’s theories have profoundly influenced fields such as discourse analysis, language education, and sociolinguistics.
