Inhalt
This seminar focuses on important areas of contrast between English and German and introduces students to the field of contrastive linguistics. Closely related though they are, the two languages differ significantly in areas such as phonology, inflectional morphology, tense and aspect, the coding of grammatical relations, the use of active and passive voice, word order, syntactic movements, non-finite complementation, and the lexicon. Aspects like these will come under close scrutiny in classwork and student presentations. Widening the angle to include the German mother tongue offers many assets for learners and teachers of English as well as for professionals mediating between the languages: Contrastive analyses have useful implications for translation, the study of bilingualism and foreign language teaching. They allow us to gain insights unattainable by analyzing languages in isolation. Moreover, they can help us assess the nature, number and impact of the changes that have led to a differentiation of English and German in the course of 1,500 years. Finally, we can attempt to find generalizations in terms of a holistic typology underlying English-German contrasts.
