(updated July 12, 2016)

Linguistics is a science devoted to explaining the faculty of language (langage, as opposed to individual langues). Itsgoal is understand why and how humans have an implicit sense of right and wrong in a language they speak, how achild is able to produce a perfectly "correct" sentence that he or she has never heard. It seeks to reveal the structuresthat allow humans to communicate but also how those communications structure the human world. Thebachelorâ€™s linguistics curriculum in DEPA (LING DEPA) is designed to offer students as wide an overview of thefield as is possible.

apparently able to learn any language in the world perfectly yet as adults if is so difficult ? How is that you know, justbe feeling, that something is correct or incorrect in a language that you speak ? How is it possible to distinguish thesounds that make up words when everyone speaks so differently ? How is it we understand each other when wespeak about things that the person we speak to has never seen ? Where do languages come from ? How do theyinfluence our societies ? Do different languages influence the way we think ?

The list of questions that have yet to be answered about the nature of language is enormous. We still do not knowthe answers to these questions and finding the answers is the science of language, or simply linguistics. This courseoffers an introduction and overview of the field of language science and the questions it seeks to answer. The coursewill be mainly theoretical but since linguistics is an empirical science, certain tools and methods will be introduced aswell. A familiarity with the tools and methods as well an understanding of the questions we seek to answer will formthe basis of the linguistics curriculum in the DEPA.

Aims

By the end of the course, students will have a broad understanding of field of language science. Specifically, thestudents will

a. have an theoretical understanding of some of the questions and problems the field addresses

b. have some practical experience with some of the methods and tools used in the field

Description








Linguistique

This course is devoted to contrastive lexicology and morphology ; in particular, we will be comparing the linguisticsystems of English and French at the level of both the lexicon and morphological categories (such as tense, aspect,and noun determination). By analysing the correspondence (or lack thereof) between lexemes (e.g. : beau-pÃ¨re /father-in-law vs stepfather ; owl / hibou vs chouette) or between morphological categories (e.g. verbal aspect : il fume/ he smokes vs heâ€™s smoking), we will consider the differences in the way the world is "divided up" orconceptualized depending on the language. We will also examine how verbal and nominal categories are structuredin English and in French. The analysis of usage will be based on a corpus of translated texts. Data from otherlanguages may also be included.

Aims

- Understand the similarities and differences between the morphological categories of English and French.

- Understand differences between languages in lexical conceptualization.

- Understand the linguistic aspects of translation (English/French) through the study of translated texts.

Linguistique

Description

How do we understand each other ? How do we know what words mean ? How do we shape the experienced world? Meaning, or the symbolic representation of thought, is arguably fundamental not only to language but to all humansociety and civilisation. Semantics, is the scientific study of the structure of meaning in langauge. Where semanticsfocuses on the meaning in our mind, pragmatics turns to how we use that meaning inter-personally. Instead of aconceptual structure, meaning is understood as a device, a communicative tool. This course examines the differentways that linguists try to answer fundamental questions in semantics and pragmatics. Rather than focusing on thetheories, the course seeks to encourage the students to ask questions themselves about how meaning is structuredand how that structure is employed. To these ends, the course asks the students to preform their own analyses andcollect their own data.

Objectives

At the end of the course, the students will have

(i) an overall understanding of the fundamental theoretical problems and theories of semantics

(ii) an overall understanding of the fundamental theoretical problems and theories of pragmatics

(ii) practical experience in collocation and feature analysis of semantic structures

(iv) practical experience in the use of electronic corpora for semantic analysis

Description

In this course we will study the history of the English language, from its Anglo-Saxon origins up through the modernperiod. Rather than following a strictly chronological approach, we will focus on certain major changes that have hada significant impact on English, e.g. lexical borrowing (especially from Old Norse & French), loss of the 2nd-singularpronoun thou, evolution of the verbal system (modals, aspectual distinctions, auxiliary usage, etc.), the Great VowelShift, etc. Through the study of these developments, we will gain insight into the different mechanisms underlyinglanguage change in general.

Aims

â€“ learn how English has changed throughout its history

â€“ understand the mechanisms of language change

Description

Language and the society it encodes are entirely entwined. Firstly, language is as varied as the society that producesit. In simple descriptive terms, an accurate picture of language, or a "grammar", must be sensitive to this variation.How can we scientifically include the effects of social variation on linguistic structure in its description ? Secondly,language is a social vehicle and instrument of social expression which can, therefore, be studied as the basis forunderstanding society per se. Can we identify hidden structures in our society through such analysis ? By revealingthese structures, can we improve our society ? This course is concerned with each aspect, both the VariationistLinguistics and Critical Discourse Analysis. The course will have a practical component, and students will be requiredto submit individual original projects.

Aims

At the end of the course, the students will

- be aware of many of the social structures that determine language structure

- be aware of many of the language structures that determine social structure

- have experience developing and working with questionnaires to perform elicitation research

- have experience working with and extracting data from corpora

- have rudimentary notions of statistics for linguistics

Description

This course provides an overview of discourse analysis in a theoretical and practical approach. We will examine thedifferent theories to tackle the issue of the particular status of discourse analysis in linguistics. As it builds a bridgewith other social sciences and humanities, discourse analysis falls into a very large field we will try to delimit. Theanalysis of political discourse, media discourse or advertisement for instance, shows complex linguistic phenomena,which can be analyzed with a series of linguistic tools.

Students will be encouraged to collect and analyze their own data se. They will work on the notion of « discursivegenre » so as to describe the features of language which interact with the context (sociological, institutional,ideological, etc â€¦).

Aims :

- understand the role of discourse analysis in linguistics,

- learn how to use linguistic tools to analyze discourse(s),

Description

In the process of translating, we establish relationships between specific manifestations of two different linguisticsystems (English and French), one which has already been expressed and the other which is still potential andadaptable.

This EC is devoted to a linguistic and syntactic approach to translating with particular emphasis on word order(foregrounding, topicalisation, focusing, etc) and the study of passive, causative and English resultativeconstructions.

Various extracts from parallel corpora will be dealt with and different methods of translation (modulation,transposition, equivalence, etc) will be exemplified throughout the semester.

This course is designed for students specialising in translation and teaching.

Location and Time : Wednesday, 11h30-14h30

Level : Master (M1/M2)

Teacher 2016-2017 :

Guillaume Desagulier[Replace email link]

Description

This hands-on course is specifically designed for Master students in linguistics*. It is aimed at teaching the basics ofcomputational corpus linguistics, quantification, and statistics.

Linguists traditionally relied on the native speakers of a language acting as informants and providing data such assentences. On the basis of such data, linguists test their hypotheses about the cognitive systems of native speakers.With the rise of massive digital collections of texts, linguists have found corpora to be far more useful thanintrospective judgments to test their hypotheses.

A corpus (plural corpora) is a large-scale collection of texts sampled from genuine linguistic productions by nativespeakers. From a statistical viewpoint, a corpus is a sample drawn from the true, unknown law of a given language.Corpus linguistics consists in digging into corpora to better understand the rules governing the language under study.

Many of the techniques that you will learn will help you understand how linguistic units interact in a language.

*Caveat : The focus will be on morphology, syntax, and semantics, but students of phonetics, phonology, andpsycholinguistics can gain from the course as well, especially with regards to the statistics part.




Linguistique

Aims

Here is a sample list of questions that we shall answer :

- what is a corpus ?

- what kinds of corpora are there ?

- how do we collect, compile, tabulate, organize, and manipulate corpus data ?

- how do we operationalize a research question ?

- how do we quantify corpus observations ?

- how can we visualize quantified corpus data ?

Prerequisites

No previous knowledge of computer programming or statistics is required. However, you should be familiar with basiccomputer skills such as copying & pasting, saving a file using .doc, .xls, .txt extensions, etc.

Reading and Material

You must bring your laptop computer in class (PC or Mac). Our main software (R, see below) does not run (well) ontablets.

You should already download and install :

(a) RStudio,

(b) a text editor (Textwrangler for Mac ; Notepad++ or Tinn-R for PC)

(c) a spreadsheet software (Excel or Libre Office Calc)

Linguistique

Statistics is not the collection and comparison of numbers. Modern statistics gives information about how likely it isthat the observations we make in our samples are true for the whole population (language). Statistics also helpidentify complex interactions in the data, or patterns of langauge usage. These patterns of usage are, in effect, anatural grammar. Lastly, statistical modelling helps us make predictions about langauge use, which we can use totest the accuracy of our descriptions and the explanatory power of our theories : essential steps in any empiricalscience.

This seminar will be practical. Students will work with electronic corpora or the results from questionnaires, on theirown projects, from the beginning of the seminar. No prior knowledge of computing or statistics is required.

Objectives

1. Understand the principles of multivariate statistics

2. Acquire the basics of operating R, the statistical programme

3. Acquire experience is the application of quantitative methods in linguistic research.

Evaluation

The assessment is based entirely on a project of the studentâ€™s choice. This project is entirely practical andconsists of an original linguistic analysis.

Prerequisites

This course is designed for usage-based linguists who work with observational "count" data (Corpus Linguistics,Discourse Analysis, Sociolinguistics, Diachronic Linguistics). Those working in Phonetics, Psycholinguistics,Acquisition or with data derived from experimentation can still gain an introduction to statistics and the program R,but the course does not deal with statistical methods dedicated those elicited "measurement" data.

No prior knowledge of computing or statistics is required.

TBA (semestre 2)

La statistique nâ€™est pas la collecte ou la comparaison de chiffres. La statistique moderne est la clef de voûte detoute science empirique et son vÃ©ritable rÃ´le reste loin de lâ€™image populaire quâ€™on se fait de ce domainescientifique. De la probabilitÃ© que nos observations sont reprÃ©sentatives du « vrai » monde Ã lâ€™identificationdâ€™interactions complexes et subtiles dans nos observations, la science moderne ne pourrait pas exister sans lastatistique. De plus, la modÃ©lisation statistique nous permet de faire des prÃ©visions concernant prÃ©cisiondâ€™une description ou bien le pouvoir explicatif dâ€™une thÃ©orie.

Ce sÃ©minaire est entiÃ¨rement pratique et les participants devront travailler sur leurs propres projets dÃ¨s lapremiÃ¨re sÃ©ance. Aucune connaissance ou expÃ©rience prÃ©alable en informatique ou en statistique nâ€™estrequise.

Objectifs

1. Comprendre les principes de la statistique multifactorielle

2. Apprendre Ã utiliser le programme R pour la statistique

3. AcquÃ©rir des expÃ©riences dans lâ€™application des mÃ©thodes quantitatives dans la recherche linguistique.

Evaluation

Lâ€™Ã©valuation repose sur un projet pratique, rendu Ã la fin du semestre. Au dÃ©but du cours, le sujet est choisipar lâ€™Ã©tudiant. Le projet est entiÃ¨rement pratique et consiste en une analyse linguistique originale.

PrÃ©requis




Linguistique

Ce cours est conÃ§u pour les linguistes qui travaillent avec les donnÃ©es observationnelles (linguistique de corpus,analyse du discours, sociolinguistique, linguistique diachronique). Les linguistes qui travaillent en psycholinguistique,en acquisition, en phonÃ©tique ou qui utilisent les donnÃ©es issues de lâ€™expÃ©rimentation peuvent apprendreles rudimentaires de la statistique et lu logiciel R, mais le cours ne traiterai pas les mÃ©thodes dÃ©diÃ©es Ã lâ€™analyse de telles donnÃ©es.

La langue de communication dans ce cours sera dÃ©cidÃ© dans le groupe. NÃ©anmoins la langue choisie, laplupart de termes techniques employÃ©s dans la statistique sont anglais.

Aucune connaissance ou expÃ©rience prÃ©alable en informatique ou en statistique nâ€™est requise

MatÃ©riaux

Un ordinateur portable (et non une tablette) est requis.

Chaque Ã©tudiant doivent installer R aussi quâ€™un Ã©diteur de texte (ex : TextWrangler (Mac) ou Notepad++(Win/ Linux))
