Check out these papers Dr. Robert Marcelo published through Taiwan Journal of Linguistics, Languages, and Linguistics Vanguard

2023-04-26T12:17:15+08:00

Check out the following papers all published within the last month by our own Dr. Robert Marcelo Sevilla through the Taiwan Journal of Linguistics, Languages, and Linguistics Vanguard on the syntax of referential classifier constructions from an OT perspective, the distribution of hesitation marker acoustic quality across Xiang varieties, and an exploration of the feasibility of conducting acoustic research through Zoom, respectively. Each of these studies contribute to a greater understanding of the Xiang subgroup of Sinitic, which has often been sidelined in theoretical explorations of Sinitic in favor of Standard Mandarin, and the last paper also has practical implications for [...]

Congrats to Taela!

2023-04-21T13:03:47+08:00

Our MA graduates, Taela Dudley, will be attending the University of Chicago this fall to conduct language and identity research. Check our her testimonial below for our MA programme: I want to thank you all so much for providing such a wonderful program. I actually pursued this master's with the intent to continue to law school afterward, but your program inspired me to change course! I thoroughly enjoyed each of your courses, and feel well equipped to take my studies to the next level. I look forward to joining a worldwide community of linguists, and potentially working together one day. Thank [...]

LING7015

2024-06-05T14:09:50+08:00

LING7015 Pragmatics Dr. Leo Hoye MA Elective course. Sem 1TBAVenue: TBA Course Description The course introduces students to linguistic and extralinguistic approaches to language use and the making of meaning, where the roles of language users, their interlocutors, and the contexts in and through which they act and use language are considered paramount. As a contextually-driven perspective on meaning, Pragmatics contrasts with Semantics which tends to focus on instances of language – linguistic expressions – that are abstracted from their real-world contexts of use. Topics to be explored include both canonical and current approaches to meaning with a focus on real-world issues [...]
