Class Objectives
/Class Outline |
In this seminar, building on “Introductory Seminar in General Linguistics,” students will deepen their understanding of concepts in general linguistics by analyzing actual examples of linguistic phenomena from the perspectives of phonology, morphology, syntax, and semantics. The aim is to gain a more thorough grasp of linguistic concepts and methods, and to acquire the fundamental knowledge and techniques necessary to conduct independent research in general linguistics. |
| Class Schedule |
Session 1: Explanation of the course outline (objectives, content, approach, etc.), confirmation of participants (names, number, etc.), distribution of materials for the practical component, and assignment of responsibilities.
Session 2: Overview of the basic principles of research methods in general linguistics.
Session 3: For the remaining sessions, designated participants will sequentially read assigned sections of a general linguistics text.

Session 1: The field of linguistics is broad in scope and encompasses various theories (hypotheses). In class, it is inevitably necessary to treat the subject matter selectively. Using what was covered in class as a guide, students are encouraged to make voluntary efforts to deepen their understanding of linguistics by utilizing books and dictionaries available in the library or research lab.
