Introduces the fundamental concepts and principles of linguistics, and stimulates curiosity about the study of the human language, what it reveals about the human mind, and the human cultures it reflects. Topics include language diversity, language universals, morphology and how words are constructed and understood in different languages, phonetics and the relationship between speech and writing, syntax and the structure and function of phrases and sentences. May be taken independently of LIN 202, although the two courses together provide a survey of the field.
