In a way that has to do with language. If two countries are linguistically close, their languages are alike. Linguistically speaking is a slightly formal way to start a comment about language. The word does the same job as linguistic, only it tells you how or in what respect: not a linguistic fact (a fact about language) but linguistically interesting (interesting when you look at the language). It is a university-and-essay adverb; in ordinary talk people say in terms of language or when it comes to the language. It does not mean “in many languages” and it does not mean “literally.”
就語言而言；在語言學上
組成From linguistic + -ally (or from linguistical + -ly): in a linguistic way.

In the manner of linguistics.

From a linguistic perspective.
- English is scandalously lacking in politically and linguistically correct antonyms of this sort. The Queen can create the Duchess of Cambridge, so surely I can create the much-needed expressions "cisgress" (be a good boy), "cisvestite" (bloke wearing trousers), "cisaction" (no deal), and "cisom" (something that isn't a lintel). Anyone who doesn't disagree is a transsy.
