| Description: |
An exploration of the German language, introducing students to: its history; the German speech area; phonetics/phonology; connected speech; morphology; syntax; semantics; pragmatics; text analysis; dialectology; and sociolinguistics. Each chapter contains practical exercises. |
| Synopsis: |
Why are the German words "vater" and "mater" so like the English "father" and "mother"? Is it true that word order is more flexible in English than in German? In what ways does the use of German differ in Germany, Austria and Switzerland? This is an exploration of questions such as these. It introduces students to the following core topics: the history of the language; the German speech area; phonetics/phonology; connected speech; morphology; syntax; semantics; pragmatics; text analysis; dialectology; and sociolinguistics. No previous knowledge of linguistics is assumed and a glossary of technical terms is included. Each chapter is accompanied by a series of practical exercises. |
