Course Syllabus
Abstract
The course contains two sections: Phonetics, which deals with the study of sounds, sound modifications in speech and basic intonation patterns of the English language, and Lexicology, which spans the study of the word. Both sections aim at familiarising students with general facts and intricacies of the phonetic and lexical systems of Modern English, and show how they impact communication practices. The principal objectives of the course of "Theoretical Phonetics" are to provide students with basic theoretical knowledge in the field of English phonetics and phonology; to develop students' foreign language communicative competencies, including linguistic, sociolinguistic and phonetic competencies; to teach students to comment on issues related to English phonetics and to put their knowledge into practice. Lexicology, in its turn, deals with the key features of English vocabulary as a system, treating the word as its central component. Reviewing such fundamental aspects as syntagmatic and paradigmatic relations, the course focuses on the word and its properties; word grouping; theories of meaning; polysemy; homonymy; synonymy; antonymy. Although the course covers special synchronic lexicology, i.e., the study of the vocabulary of Modern English, the etymological survey of the English word stock earns quite a bit of attention. Not overlooked are word structure, or word morphemic composition, and word formation, or word building. Idioms, proverbs, and sayings are also looked at within the course. Last but not least, the course familiarises students with methods of lexical analysis and lexicography.
Learning Objectives
- The main objective of the theoretical phonetics is to introduce students to the fundamentals of English phonetics so that they obtain basic knowledge of articulatory and acoustic features of English sounds and basic intonation patterns and put the knowledge into practice.
- The main objective of the secion "Lexicology" is enabling students with an opportunity to view the Modern English word stock as a system synchronically, analyzing lexical units in terms of their syntagmatic and paradigmatic relations. Elements of diachronic analysis are included, too.
