LING 140 Language in the U.S. 6 credits
The United States is home to diverse and interconnected linguistic communities. In this course, we will see how applying the tools of linguistics—the scientific study of language—can shed light on the dynamics of these communities. We will examine how language unites and divides, changes over time, and is used for oppression and for liberation. We will see how groups and individuals vary their linguistic expression as they navigate subtle racial, ethnic, geographic, and socioeconomic boundaries. Along the way, students will gain familiarity with a range of research methodologies and the interpretation of different kinds of data.
