LING1402 [L14B]: Introduction to Language Structure introduces students to the important areas of language structure such as sound systems, word formation, sentence and phrase formation.

Introduction to Language Structure (LING1402) introduces students to the important areas of language structure such as sound systems, word formation, sentence and phrase formation. These are all elements that are very relevant to linguistics, communication experts, teachers of languages, foreign language learners, among others. The main goal of this course is to make students aware of the systematic nature of language and the scientific way in which linguists go about doing investigations into language structure.
- Lecturer: Sashann Dixon
This course introduces students to the scientific study of language. The basics of phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax and semantics will be covered, so that students will begin to understand how linguistic analysis is carried out. The course also introduces students to Sociolinguistics and the Sociology of Language. The teacher will be enabled, then, to make preliminary formal and functional analyses of the speech communities from which their students come.

The course introduces you to the scientific
study of language. The basics of phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax and
semantics will be covered, so that you will begin to understand how
linguistic analysis is carried out. The emphasis will be on the analysis of the
range of structures which exist in the linguistic repertoire of a speaker in a
Caribbean Creole community.
The course also introduces you to
Sociolinguistics and the Sociology of Language, specifically to issues
concerned with
language variation, criteria for describing language situations, attitudes
toward languages and the function of particular languages in a speech
community.
The course will enable you as a teacher to make preliminary formal and functional analyses of the speech communities from which your students come.
This course builds on the Level 1 phonetics and phonology. We will aim to achieve a deeper understanding of the articulatory properties of speech and of how these form the grounding of phonological analysis. We will also study prosody (including tone, intonation, stress), syllable structure, and phonotactics. Throughout, we will develop the theoretical tools which help in the understanding and representation of the phenomena which fall within the domain of phonology. LING2001 creates a foundation for the final-year course LING3001 Advanced Phonology.

This course builds on the level-1 introductory courses to language structure, in particular as it pertains to phonetics and phonology, although morphology and syntax also have some relevance. We will aim to achieve a deeper understanding of the articulatory properties of speech and of how these form the phonetic basis of phonology. We will consider the nature of processes which result in allophony and/or allomorphy. Finally, we also study prosody, including stress, tone and intonation, syllable structure, and phonotactics. Throughout, we will strive to develop an understanding of the theoretical approaches which help us analyse and represent the phenomena which fall within the domain of phonology.
