WiSe 15/16: PS-Levels of Linguistic Analysis II: Varieties of English - English dialect typology

Maren Schiefke-Vogt

Comments

In this course we will examine the variation in English today. Paying close enough attention, every speaker of English will realize that it is very difficult to speak of "the English language", as there are many different varieties of English that differ in various aspects. In this class, we will compare and contrast different English varieties with each other and consider their linguistic features, covering most areas of linguistic description, including pronunciation, grammar, and lexicon. The study of geographical variation raises various more general issues: How do such differences arise? Do the differences reflect major structural differences in the linguistic system? Do all varieties of English share the same basic grammar?
Course requirements: regular and active participation (including reading tasks), oral presentation, term paper close
