Understanding one's own use of language systematically is called metalinguistic awareness.

It is the ability to think about language as an object, for example to judge whether a sentence is grammatical or to reflect on word meanings.

Pragmatics concerns the use of language in context, pronunciation is the production of sounds, and syntax is sentence structure. None of them means awareness of one's own language use.

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2014,

Answer: C

Bandura's social learning theory focused mainly on moral behaviour.

He stressed that moral behaviour is learned through observation, modelling and reinforcement, and gave less weight to stages of reasoning.
