Synopsis
"As an introduction to linguistic science, this course's main goal is to show that speaking is more than a matter of knowing words and putting them in order. Linguists have discovered that language is an intricate hierarchy of systems, ever changing in surface appearance but ever consistent in organizational essence"--Course guidebook.
This is a series of 36 lectures by Prof. John McWhorter and includes a printed guidebook.
