| 授業の目的・方法 ／Course Objectives and method |
This seminar provides an English academic environment for 3rd and 4th year Japanese undergraduates who want to study about how we use language according to our identity and the context in which we are speaking. The language of the seminar is mainly English, but through our study we talk about a wide variety of languages and dialects, including Japanese. This year we will have two places open to foreign students who are participating in the YOUC programme. If more than 2 people want to join there will be a selection process involving an interview and a written assignment. The seminar runs from April to February and it is held on Thursday afternoons 14:30~17:30 |

| 達成目標 ／Course Goals |
The main focus of the seminar is to introduce students to the field of sociolinguistics by exploring the following themes: (i) How does situation change your way of speaking?; (ii) How do we learn languages?; and (iii) How has the English language developed over time? In the Spring semester we explore the following areas of sociolinguistics: dialects, language evolution, pragmatics, conversation analysis, bilingualism and language planning. In the Fall semester we focus on the evolution of the English language, considering the history of English from Anglo-Saxon times, varieties of English, the standardization of English and learning English as a second language. |
