*Introduction to Spanish Linguistics*
Haralambos Symeonidis This course provides an introduction to Spanish linguistics and establishes the basis for future application of linguistic principles. The course begins with an exploration of the sound system of Spanish and its theoretical representation. Building on this, the discussion continues with topics in Spanish morphology such as word formation and verbal inflection. This is followed by issues in syntax that are analysed in isolation. The goal of this course is to provide students with a level of knowledge that enables them to make connections between the structure of Spanish and relevant issues in contemporary Hispanic linguistics, such as language variation, bilingualism, and Spanish in the United States. Course objectives: Examine various aspects of Spanish linguistics; Explore the theoretical description of Spanish phonology, phonetics, morphosyntax, semantics, and pragmatics; Apply key concepts to linguistic problems and original data; Develop a basic knowledge on Spanish linguistics in order to evaluate in a critical way other linguistic studies and theories in the future.
