Linguistic deviation, the phenomenon where language usage diverges from conventional norms, plays a crucial role in both everyday communication and artistic expression. The classification of these deviations has been widely debated among linguists, due to their complexity and diversity across languages. This article explores the challenges of classifying linguistic deviations, emphasizing the inherent difficulties posed by the dynamic nature of language and its use. The paper reviews various approaches to categorizing deviations, including syntactic, phonological, morphological, and semantic types, as well as more specialized forms such as rhetorical and pragmatic deviations.
