英語学演習２

授業テーマ	Human language is constantly changing, which causes languages to become different. In this course we will analyze two languages (Modern English and Scottish Gaelic) to see how languages can differ from one another structurally. It is hoped that the student will come to appreciate the diversity of languages.
授業のねらい・到達目標	This semester focuses on the study and analysis of English dialects around the world.
授業の方法	The aim of the course is to give the students real language examples of present day English social and geographical dialects. A secondary goal is to observe how several Indo-European language systems function phonologically, morphologically and grammatically.
