Semester: SEM2

Contact: Ms Chantal Gratton
Prerequisite: Before or while taking this module you must take LIN4208

This module concerns the contexts in which English is used, and the fact that the patterns and variations in language used in the everyday are worthy of analysis. The aim is to demonstrate how language-in-use can be studied systematically, and to show how English is used in particular situations and in the module of activities, speech situations, public discourse, and interpersonal interactions that we might otherwise take for granted.
