Description

Genom föreläsningar och praktiska övningsmoment, utvecklar studenterna sin förmågan att använda data och teoretiska begrepp som är grundläggande i lingvistik. Kursen behandlar den allmänna språkvetenskapens olika delområden: morfologi (ordstruktur), syntax (satsstruktur), semantik/pragmatik (betydelsestruktur), och fonologi (ljudstruktur). Föreläsningarna tar upp olika typer av företeelser dessa områden behandlar, vilka språkvetenskapliga modeller som används för att beskriva dem och göra generaliseringar, centrala begrepp, samt exempel på formalismer som används i olika typer av lingvistisk analys.

Kursen ingår också som delkurs i Lingvistik, grundkurs (LINA13).

Språkets struktur och funktion är institutionens grundläggande kurs i allmän språkvetenskap. Genom föreläsningar och praktiska övningsmoment ges studenterna data och teoretiska begrepp som behövs för fortsatta studier i lingvistik. Kursen har som mål att introducera studenterna till den allmänna språkvetenskapens olika delområden: morfologi, syntax, semantik och fonologi. Delområdet morfologi behandlar ordstruktur i olika språk, syntax utgör studiet av satsstruktur, bl.a. ordföljder som tillåts i världens språk, semantik studerar olika aspekter på språkliga uttrycks betydelse och kommunikativa funktion och fonologi behandlar vilka ljud och ljudprocesser som kännetecknar olika språk. Föreläsningarna tar upp vilka typer av fakta dessa områden behandlar, vilka problem som diskuteras inom dem, centrala begrepp och distinktioner och ger vidare exempel på de regelbundenheter man hittar eller söker efter samt på formalismer som lingvister utvecklat för den teoretiska språkbeskrivningen.

Admission Requirements

Grundläggande behörighet samt Svenska B och Engelska B.

Note!

This course is not open as a freestanding course next semester. It can be open for application within a programme or for students in an exchange programme. Please ask your academic advisor for information.

How to apply

Lund University uses a national application system run by University Admissions in Sweden. It is only possible to apply during the application periods: October–January for autumn semester and June–August for spring semester.

Extended application deadline

Sometimes the application deadline is extended for a specific programme or course. In these cases you will find the message "open for late application" by the programme/course information on universityadmissions.se. You apply with the usual application steps. As long as this message is showing, it is possible to apply, but late applications are processed in order of date, so it is still important to apply as soon as possible. Please note that if the programme/course does not have an extended deadline, it is not possible to apply late.

First or Second Admission Round?

All international students are encouraged to apply to the First admission round. This round takes place many months before the start of a semester and gives students the time they need to pay their tuition fees, apply for and receive their residence permit (if required), find housing, etc.

The Second admission round is an alternative for students from EU/EEA countries as they do not need a residence permit. Non-EU/EEA students will most likely not have enough time to obtain their permit before the start of the semester. However, even EU/EEA students are advised to apply during the First admission round, as some programmes can be applied for only in the January round. Also, this provides applicants with an admission decision much earlier, which is helpful in making decisions about their studies.

Tuition Fees
