Explanation
Why this works
Use precise examples before making a judgement. This answer should show how the response meets the learning objective: Examine graphology in diversity and change analysis.
In Methods of language analysis for Paper 2, the strongest explanation links the answer to Language levels for Paper 2 analysis, uses accurate linguistic terminology, and makes the evidence serve a clear analytical purpose. If the question is exam-style, the student should move beyond naming a feature by explaining how audience positioning works in a child-language transcript showing development across grammar, lexis and pragmatics.
That means connecting language choice to meaning, context, representation, audience, genre, mode or method as appropriate. The conclusion should not be a personal opinion; it should be a supported judgement about how the language data operates in relation to the task.
