In this course, students will work on independent projects using data from a less-studied language (i.e., not English, German, French, etc.) The course will begin with research methods, with a focus on using linguistic corpora. We will discuss how to create a research question with corresponding methods from different subfields of linguistics, including phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax and semantics. Students will create their own research question and choose a language to investigate, with guidance from the instructor. They will develop skills working with real language data and will exercise their analytical thinking in testing their hypotheses. |
