| Goals | The objective of this course is to introduce fundamental concepts of linguistics: phonetics, phonology, language and brain development, artificial languages and semantics |
| Course Content | Basic concepts in linguistic analysis; the nature, structure and use of language by way of awareness raising activities, error analysis of language learners’ production, case studies, and comparative analysis of native and target languages; the components of language as a system: linguistic competence and performance, branches of linguistics, types of grammar, language universals, creativity of linguistic knowledge, arbitrariness of language, sign languages, artificial languages and animal communication; brain and language, lateralization and handedness, evolution of language, human language processing models, research on language and disorders (e.g., dichotic listening, split brain, WADA); phonetics: acoustic, auditory and articulatory phonetics, speech organs, phoneme, vowels and consonants, IPA, diphthongs, tripthongs, manner and place of articulation; phonology: sound patterns, assimilation, dissimilation, linking, consonant clusters, silent letters, suprasegmentals, stress and intonation; semantics: componential analysis, entailment, semantic relations, sense and reference, collocational meaning |
