On successful completion of the course students are expected to:
• acquaint with the nature of speech sounds, the mechanisms of speech production and perception and the ways by which sounds are classified.
• use the IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet) in speech transcription.
• perform a phonemic analysis drawing on notions of minimal pairs, contrastive vs complementary distribution, conditioning of allophones, and free variation.
• identify the role of stress, tone, and intonation in speech.
• analyze phonological data from Modern Greek and their L1.
• display awareness of the different types of morphology across languages.
• develop knowledge of the principles that govern morphology and how it interacts with phonology.
• analyze words into their morphological constituents.
• acquire skills in linguistic argumentation with respect to phonology and morphology.
• identify the relatedness of phonological and morphological analysis to language acquisition, teaching, and language technologies.
