Applied Linguistics is an interdisciplinary field of study that identifies, investigates, and offers solutions to language-related real-life problems. Some of the academic fields related to applied linguistics are education (language assessment, second language acquisition), communication and language policy, psychology, computer science, anthropology, and sociology. The tradition of applied linguistics established itself in the late 1950s. A few years ago applied Polish linguistics was established at the Polish Faculty at the University of Warsaw. It is concerned with principles and practices on the basis of Polish language such as stylistics, communication, language education, speech therapy, voice emission, rhetoric, and media language. What is the relation between applied linguistics and Polish applied linguistics: are they exclusive or rather inclusive? The answer for this question is the aim of this paper.
