Do English pink and German rosa denote the same hue? Why do Russian speakers have only one word for the body parts hand and arm? These are the questions we will explore in this course. You will learn about the meanings of words in different languages and investigate the differences in semantic categories. Through close examination of research articles, you will gain an understanding of the methods of linguistic fieldwork and how to compare different languages. The course will equip you with knowledge about language diversity and will enable you to find a topic for your term paper on your own. |
