SPAN 213 Madrid Program: Pragmatics and Conversation in Context 3 credits
Pragmatics entails the relationship between language and context. This subfield of linguistics can help us become more aware and critical of what we say, whether it be in our native language or a second language. After reviewing some basic theoretical components, students will use their experiences in Spain as a “laboratory” to reflect on their own interactions and observations during their daily lives abroad. Although the concepts covered are applicable to any language, this class focuses primarily on Spanish, often contrasted with cultural and linguistic differences in English regarding conversational styles, speech acts, politeness and verbal interaction in general.
