Office Hours: By appointment Required Texts: Yule, G.. The Study of Language Cambridge University Press, 2006 Course Description: The current course is designed to prepare English-major students with core knowledge of linguistics. A range of disciplines in linguistics studies will be introduced, including the origins of languages, morphology, syntax, semantics, pragmatics, discourse analysis, language acquisition and language variations. Course Objectives: At the successful conclusion of this course, students are expected to (1) understand fundamental concepts of core disciplines of linguistics (2) develop knowledge of language to analyze language phenomena (3) identify and describe differences among languages by theories learned (4) analyze meanings of language in pragmatic sense (5) explore language variations Course Requirements: (1) All students are required to use a copyrighted textbook. No photocopied edition will be accepted for use in class. It is important for students to be aware that legal action will potentially be sought by the publisher in the case of using an unauthorized duplicated text. (2) Students are responsible for preparing annotated handouts as assigned. Handouts need to include: i. Unit Precis (at least 800 words) with translation ii. Definitions of key terms iii. Definitions / meanings of unfamiliar lexical items iv. Research Tasks (see textbook) Handouts are to be distributed to the class prior to the unit session except for the translation. An electronic file (on compact disc, not via email) of complete handouts will be due for submission in two weeks after the session. All submitted files need to comply with the format as instructed. (3) Each student will be given abundant opportunities to provide his/ her response toward the assigned reading content as the lectures proceed. Students must complete all readings assigned prior to the class session. (4) The instructor will not assign additional readings. As Linguistics comprises a broad array of theories and studies, students who are highly interested in this field are strongly encouraged to consult the professor for further suggested readings.

評量方式與標準
Evaluation Procedures & Grading System: Final grades will be determined by a point system (X out of 100 total points). Students will be evaluated by their handout assignment, full-length text translation, in-class exams, and attendance. (1) Attendance 30 % (2) Exams (Midterm & Final) 55 % (3) Assignment 15% Attendance: Students are required to attend the class as scheduled. 1) Any AWOL will result in the penalty of 10% semester grade deduction. 2) Penalty-waiver can be granted for any absence w/ official document at the sole instructor’s discretion. It is only limited for one time in the entire semester. Should there be any major incidents and issues under extreme circumstances, special considerations will be given after thorough discussion with the student(s) and the class advisor(s). 3) Lateness to class: Any arrival to class after the instructor finishes the second-round roll call is considered lateness. Each lateness will, in effect, incur a grade penalty of 5% semester grade deduction.
