Functional Grammar Course

This course introduces students to systemic functional grammar, in which language is regarded as “a resource for making meaning”. Language is thus seen as a vehicle for communication between people in social and cultural contexts. Students will be introduced to the framework for analyzing grammar and meaning along three dimensions: of how language represents states and activities, of how language functions in interaction between people, and of how information is structured in sentences and texts. Through both theoretical introductions and practical exercises, students will raise their awareness of how language users convey meaning through their choice of words and grammatical structures in specific situations. The coursework includes analyzes of authentic texts.
