Knowledge and understanding
The course aims at promoting an in-depth knowledge of social variation and registers in LIS.
Applying knowledge and understanding:
The course intends to provide students with the skill of analysing critically language and the models developed to analyse it in order to elicit the different conception of language and to reflect on a multimodal model of the translation process.
making judgement:
The awareness on the language concept and its different levels of analysis, as well as the variables that can affect it, make students capable of express judgements and of evaluating the nature of the linguistic and translation event.
communication skills:
Thinking and talking about language require a technical register that allow to describe linguistic events in an accurate way. This course aims then at providing students with this technical register and accuracy.
