Crash Course Linguistics

Linguistics is the study of language, but what does that even mean?

We’re diving into the topic of morphology and what makes up these things we call words.

We start our discussion of syntax and how we morph words into questions and stories.

We break down what roles different types of words and phrases play within a sentence.

We learn about semantics and how words' meanings change over time.

We cover Grice’s Maxims and the different types of conversational styles.
