This research focuses on differentiating and measuring differences among academic disciplines through socio-epistemic language use. By analyzing how these language patterns evolve over time, we can discover disciplinary drift and observe how classifications interact across various genres and data sources. This study highlights the significance of adapting classification schemes to reflect ongoing changes in specialisms and emerging independent disciplines. The findings aim to contribute to a deeper understanding of academic languages and their impact on knowledge formation.
