Übung 
Transcription and syntactic analysis based on ISAAVA

       
  Content   In this course, you will develop two types of skill:
     
We will transcribe English texts phonologically using the International Phonetic Alphabet.
     
We will analyze the syntax of English sentences following the valency model set out in ISAAVA (Introduction to Syntactic Analysis - A Valency Approach by Herbst and Schüller 2008).
       
  Material   You will find digital material online in my password-protected StudOn area for this course.

In order to be able to access the material for this particular course, you will first need to register with a password that I will give you during the first meeting.
