LING 80.07 Advanced Linguistics Seminar: Variation and Dialects

Regional dialects have always stimulated popular interest and curiosity. Variation is a key part of linguistics that can be objectively investigated in terms of regional dialects and also age, gender, ethnicity, social class, speech style, and other factors. This course examines a wide range of issues in linguistic variation using the latest empirical and analytical methods and theoretical perspectives. The course includes opportunities for "hands-on" field projects and laboratory research.

The Timetable of Class Meetings contains the most up-to-date information about a course. It includes not only the meeting time and instructor, but also its official distributive and/or world culture designation. This information supersedes any information you may see elsewhere, to include what may appear in this ORC/Catalog or on a department/program website. Note that course attributes may change term to term therefore those in effect are those (only) during the term in which you enroll in the course.
