Question

forensic linguistics involves ______ to examine written and spoken words in order to obtain evidence.
○ the increase in criminal activity using written communications
○ the use of technology
○ text messaging
○ the corruptness of police communications

Explanation:

Forensic linguistics uses technology to analyze written/spoken words for evidence. The first option is about criminal activity increase (not what forensic linguistics involves), text messaging is a medium (not the method), and police communications' corruptness is irrelevant. So the correct choice is the use of technology.

Answer:

B. the use of technology (assuming the options are labeled A, B, C, D with A as "the increase in criminal activity using written communications", B as "the use of technology", C as "text messaging", D as "the corruptness of police communications")
