Discourse analysis is the study of how language is used in communication, focusing on the ways meaning is constructed and conveyed in spoken, written, or visual forms. It examines not just the content of communication but also the context in which it occurs, including the social, political, and cultural factors that influence language. This approach is essential for understanding representation and bias as it reveals how certain perspectives are emphasized or marginalized through language.
