Description:

In the first year of the course, you will learn essential analytical tools and concepts. You will take compulsory modules dealing with the structure and sounds of English. You will also take a module introducing you to linguistic study. These modules will allow you to learn about how language actually works and how linguists study it.

You'll then apply the things you've learned in these modules to the history of English and language variation, which will teach you about how language varies in space and time.
