Università Roma Tre

The course aims to present the ways in which the linguistic research analyses:
1. the structures of the verbal codes
2. the use of the languages.
In the first part , the course makes the students aware of the patterns used to describe the sounds, the words, the syntax, the texts and the pragmatics, with the objective of explaining the complex nature of communication. The second part of the course is intended to clarify the different variables linked to the social aspects, the communicative skills and the media use.
By the end of the course the students should be familiar with some of the technique terminology and be able to apply this knowledge to observe and explore an aspect of the linguistic variation.
There are no prerequisites. Specific activities could be organized to support the study of the foreign students and the working students.
