Zhang, Öztürk, Quinn. Linguistics 110: Introduction to Linguistics

Harvard University, 2002. 137 pages.Введение в лингвистику – учебный курс Гарвардского университета.A challenging introduction to contemporary linguistic theory and methods of linguistic analysis: morphological, syntactic, semantic, phonological, and phonetic analysis, and overviews of comparative and experimental linguistics. The discussion will draw on data from a wide variety of languages.This course introduces components of study of language: phonology, morphology, syntax, and semantics. It presents the view that knowledge of language is best characterized as an unconsciously internalized set of abstract rules and principles. Evidence is drawn from a variety of signed and spoken languages, language universals, child language acquisition, language change, language games, and language disorders.
