Abstract

This paper deals with Testing and Evaluation which is an important aspect of the process of language learning and teaching. A Linguistics approach to language teaching is a scientific and objective approach and is based on the theoretical knowledge of Linguistics. Since language testing involves language, one cannot ignore the assumptions of Linguistics. Linguistics has to offer many things to the teaching of native and foreign languages. Similarly it is also recognized that Linguistics can be of great help in evolving the methodology of the construction of language tests.
