Abstract
Coined by Jacob Robert Kantor in 1936, the term Psycholinguistics is a vast topic to analyze. It may be termed as a plethora of cognitive processes that make it possible to generate a grammatical and meaningful sentence out of grammatical structures and vocabulary as well as the series of steps that makes it possible to understand words, texts, articulation, etc. Essentially a branch of study that combines psychology and linguistics, psycholinguistics is basically concerned with the relationship between the human mind and the concerned language. Communication is a two-way process, not just involves two groups on both ends of the transmission line, but also a number of factors in general. The most important thing among them is the human mind. How it encodes and decodes the message signal en route to effective communication. Here, human psychology plays a vital role. If broken up, a number of areas crop up including Phonetics, Morphology, Syntax, Pragmatics, etc. Therefore, this paper is more or less a study on how the extreme extravaganza of Psycholinguistics affect effective communication in general and in the process chalk up a camaraderie with subtopics like the aforementioned.
