BA-Studierende müssen parallel zu diesem Kurs auch eine der Übungen "Fundamentals of Grammar"
belegen, da die Modulklausur im Modul A1 beide Veranstaltungen abprüft.
This class introduces students to the different fields of Linguistics, pertinent methods and terminology. The
course thus offers a survey of the study of English on different linguistic levels, beginning with its sounds
(Phonetics/Phonology), moving on via an analysis of the form, structure and meaning of words (Morphology,
Lexicology, Semantics) and of sentences (Syntax) towards an analysis of discourse and language use
(Pragmatics). An introduction to the analysis of regional or social varieties of language (Sociolinguistics) will
round off this survey. This course is a prerequisite for further seminars in English Linguistics.

Fundamentals of Grammar A

Grammar is the backbone or architecture of a language since a competent speaker does not only have to master
the vocabulary of a given language but also has to know how to combine words into larger units, such as clauses
and sentences. A theoretical knowledge of English grammar is therefore a prerequisite for understanding what
speakers do when they use their language. This course is intended to assist students in their study of the grammar
of English at an academic level. It provides practice in applying the principles and rules formulated in scientific
grammars, focusing on word-classes and the structure of words (morphology) in the first half of the semester and
on the principles of English sentence structure (syntax) in the second.
