ENGL 508 - Introduction to Linguistics


Credit Hours: 3
Lecture Hours: 3
Lab Hours: 0

This course provides students with the terminology and elementary concepts of linguistics. Students will separate linguistic science from myths. The course identifies linguistic markers in both literary and everyday language. The raw material of language will be studied as resources for art, i.e. poetry. The course will delineate some of the issues in contemporary linguistics. Although not primarily a course on pedagogy, this course will from time to time apply linguistic principles to the teaching of English language and literature.
