G-LSUD4 ThLing460 Generative Syntax

Elective | Teaching hours: 3 | Credits: 3 | ECTS: 6

Description

This course is an introduction to sentence structure. It looks into the largely unconscious rules that determine how speakers of a language combine words into larger units such as phrases and sentences, and how they structurally represent what they hear or read. Examples will be drawn mainly for English but we will also use data from other languages as well as developmental (first and second language acquisition data). 

Assessment: written exam

Optionally: 15% of the total grade from 10 problem sets (1 each week) submitted in class (not electronically)

Main set book: van Gelderen, E. (2017). Syntax. An Introduction to Minimalism. Benjamins Pub. (e-book)
