In this course students learn about the structure of the English language (form) and how it works (function).

This lecture is based on "Introduction to English Synchronic Linguistics" and will present a more detailed discussion of the main areas of linguistic enquiry: the sounds of language (phonetics and phonology), the structure of words (morphology and word-formation), the meaning of words (semantics and lexicology), the combination of words (syntax), language in communication (pragmatics).

Lecture.

Written final exam: multiple choice, short-answer questions.

Compulsory reading: David Crystal: How Language Works (Penguin, 2007).

In addition, a select bibliography of recommended books will be handed out at the beginning of term.

None.

Although there are no formal prerequisites, students are strongly advised to take this course only after having completed compulsory module 11/5 (Introduction: English Linguistics).

For the Teacher Training Programme (Lehramt Englisch) this is not a compulsory course.
