This paper explores the structural levels of language, focusing on their classification, characteristics, and interrelationships. Drawing on foundational and contemporary linguistic theories, it presents a detailed analysis of five core linguistic levels: phonetic and phonological, morphological, lexical and semantic, syntactic, and pragmatic. The study demonstrates how each level contributes to the overall structure and meaning of language, while also emphasizing their dynamic interplay in both spoken and written communication. Key theoretical frameworks from scholars such as Ferdinand de Saussure and Noam Chomsky are discussed to contextualize the evolution of structural and generative linguistic models. Furthermore, the paper examines how an understanding of these linguistic levels informs effective language teaching, translation practices, and computational linguistics. By integrating structural, functional, and cognitive perspectives, the study highlights the significance of adopting a multilayered approach in linguistic analysis. The findings suggest that inter-level awareness enhances pedagogical practices, supports accurate cross-linguistic interpretation, and fosters more human-like language processing in artificial intelligence systems.
