This module builds on what students have learned in QXL1117 in the core areas of morphology and syntax from a descriptive and a theoretical standpoint. The module presents the students with topics and data analysis in the fields of morphology and syntax, beginning with a review of terms and terminology. Topics and data analysis include: grammatical categories, morphological mapping, the nature of the morpho-syntactic interface, theoretical syntax, constituent structure and grammatical relations. The knowledge and skills acquired in this module will be essential for a number of other modules and/or projects.
Cynnwys cwrs
This module provides an intermediate level framework in which to both study and apply key ideas, terms and concepts on the fields of morphology and syntax. There are two goals for this course. The first goal is to introduce students to more advanced ideas and principles central to the study of both morphology and syntax. The second goal is to provide students with the tools to apply the terms and principles to data / problem sets in order to conduct morphological and /or syntactical analysis. The lectures will provide students with the “big picture”, i.e. central ideas are summarized, important terms and principles defined and theoretical implications outlined. In the tutorials, students discuss key elements in detail and reflect on theoretical implications and apply the knowledge gained to cross linguistic examples and/or data sets.
The following are representative topics:
1: Review: Introduction, word structure, types of morphemes.
2: Productivity, Inflectional morphology.
3: Morphological mappings of grammatical function.
4: Grammatical relations.
5: Dependency relations.
6: Constituent structure.
7: Theories of syntax.
