The course, especially designed for
English special students of the Third year, is entitled ‘An Introduction to the
Study of the English Language’. Through regular lectures conducted over the
span of roughly 8 months, the course aims to familiarize students with
different aspects of communication and the distinctive nature of human language
as a means of communication. In Semester VI, Students are not just introduced to basic concepts
in Modern Linguistics (like Phonological, Morphological and Syntactic systems
of the English language), but are also introduced to advanced areas of English
language study. It will attempt to greatly enhance the existing grammatical
competence of students along with gaining information regarding the
situational, contextual, social and cultural appropriateness of English. These
broad areas help provide a solid foundation in the subject. Besides these,
the course shifts its traditional approach and acquires modern dimensions by equipping
learners with skills in academic writing and editing. Consequently, it helps prepare,
through a healthy mixture of the traditional and the modern, a well-rounded student of
the English language and Linguistics.
