Institutional Learning Outcomes: Critical Thinking and Investigation Students are introduced to phonetics, phonology and morphology. Students learn the basic physiology of the vocal tract, use of the International Phonetic Alphabet, sound patterning, and word formation to gain an appreciation of similarities and differences between world languages. Data from a wide variety of languages, including Indigenous languages, are used for illustrative purposes. Students are not expected to have prior knowledge of these languages, though some knowledge of at least one second language is an asset. Prerequisite: Recommended - 6 credits of any English and/or Modern language courses or equivalent. Note: Students will only receive credit for one of ENGL 3270 and LING 2010.
