- Contents
- Talking is not just about generating sounds, not just about putting the right inflection markers in the right place, not just about getting the words in the right order. Talking is also about informing, making people laugh, or blaming someone. Words can hurt, can do good, and can even "change the world".
You are probably all familiar with the different levels of description in linguistics: phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, and pragmatics. Pragmatics usually closes this list, and when I was a student myself, this area seemed to me like a big potpourri which gathered all the aspects of language that did not fit into any other category... I therefore propose to you during this semester to explore this large family of factors that we describe as "pragmatic".
Another important aspect of this course will be the learning of methodological skills. During the semester, you will read a scientific article by yourself and present it to your fellow students. At the end of the semester, you will be graded on an final paper (Hausarbeit) of about a dozen pages.
