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.
