According to People's Linguistic Survey of
India (PLSI, 2015) more than 780 languages are collectively spoken by more than 1.2 billion people in India . Many of these languages are not only used as medium of instruction but also studied as an independent subject in schools, colleges and Universities.

Introduction
to impart adequate knowledge about the subject matter (i.e. language and literature) ;
to equip the learners with basic language skills (listening, speaking, reading and writing);
to promote the spiritual, moral, cultural, mental and physical development of the learners ;
to prepare them for the opportunities, responsibilities and experiences for the future.

Objectives of Language Education
By mastery of the (language) subject:Competence (internal knowledge) and performance
(actual usage). Acquisition of language skills: Familiarity of components of language and
literaturePhonology, Morphology, Syntax and Semantics and Genesis, Generics, Aesthetics and Affectives.Exploration of rules - grammatical and literary set
of rules andTraditions in language and literature.

How these objectives are achieved?
The mechanism consists of two components:Comprehensive Database : consists and cover
the major minor components of language and literature base on linguistics. (Questions)
7000 Dimensional Problems Consists of about 850 Sub Components
Retrieval Facility. A software program to generate test papers and evaluation points based on given difficulty level.

General Frame of Reference
Detailed example : LANGUAGE: PHONO/SEGMENTAL FEATURES/SINGLE SOUND-VOWEL
BOUNDARY
Let's look at the following number codes: 110101
From left to right. First digit refers to the discipline taken for testing [ i.e - Language]
Next two digits refer to the major components viz., Levels in Language [ i.e - Phonology in Language]
Fourth and fifth digits refer to the minor components [ i.e - Segmental features in Phonology]
Sixth digit refers to the unknown dimension (problem) [ i.e . Boundary of a vowel single sound under Segmental features]
