Inhalt
Description:
Although the focus of this seminar will naturally be on the English language, we will explore recurrent patterns in the evolution of other languages, too. We will look at most core domains of linguistics, i.e. phonology, semantics, syntax, morphology and discourse-pragmatics. In the process, we will treat cognitive and social motivations for change. Topics to be discussed include the GOING-TO future as well as related future constructions in the Romance or other languages. Students attending this seminar must be willing to do regular reading assignments and give a short presentation (including a handout, prepared in co-operation with another student).
