Course Description and Course Goals: “Introduction to Linguistics” introduces the field of Linguistics, its history and its applications (Semantics, Dialectology..) “Introduction to Linguistics” is divided into three sections: Phonetics and Morphology (the phonetic signs, the syllables, the morphemes), Semantics and a brief history of the English language and of the Spanish language, and the Syntactic study of Language (how sentences connect).
Learning Outcomes: The student will be able to write the sounds of language phonetically and to understand the linguistic terms used in class. The student will have knowledge of the terms that refer to the points of articulation of the sounds. The student will be familiar with the different applications of Linguistics.
