Obsah předmětu
|
Language contact is found on both individual and societal level. The linguistic performance of multilingual speakers is typically affected by the languages used with resulting convergence in grammatical structure (students will keep a logbook to collect primary data of their own multilingual performance). In multilingual societies, similar convergence of linguistic systems is found. The results of long-term language contact range from complete language shift and language death to a Sprachbund equilibrium. The course will survey a number of language-contact situations. Students will be lead to consult the relevant literature and use printed and electronic resources in search for manifestations of language contact and their linguistic and social explanations. Finally, we will consider the implications of language contact research for practical issues such as language acquisition, bilingual proficiency or language attrition and loss. 1 Introduction into Language Contact, Survey of syllabus, goals, etc. 2 Methodology & Multilingual repertoire 3 Acquiring and maintaining bilingual repertoire 4 Multilingualism in individuals and societies 5 Codeswitching 6 Replication of linguistic 'matter' 7 Lexical borrowing 8 Grammatical and phonological borrowing 9 Converging structures (patterns replication) 10 Contact languages, Pidgins, Creoles, Indigenized varieties (World Englishes) 11 SE Asian contact language (case studies) 12 Language shift, first language attrition and death
