Conflicting definitions

Greetings!

This page and Sociolinguistics share a problem: they both define themselves as one thing, and define the other as the opposite.

From this page:

"Sociology of language is the study of the effect of language on society. It is closely related to the field of sociolinguistics, which focuses on the effect of society on language."

From sociolinguistics:

"... the focus of sociology of language is the effect of the society on the language, while the sociolinguistics focuses on language's effect on the society."

As you can see, one of these definitions has to be inherently wrong. The question is, which one? JaykeBird (talk) 12:06, 26 August 2015 (UTC)
