Linguistics & Modern Language - Early Irish or French or German or Irish or Russian or Spanish

Linguistics is the scientific study of language. Linguists investigate how language works; how patterns of sounds, words and sentences combine to convey meaning. A modern language plus another subject allows you to combine an interest in languages with an entirely different academic discipline, and gives you intensive training in both.
