Course description: Intro to Spanish Linguistics: Presents the principal branches of linguistic study, as it pertains to Spanish: the sound system (phonetics and phonology), the structure of words (morphology), and the structure of sentences (syntax). Additionally, attention is paid to bilingualism, especially Spanish in the US, and how Spanish is spoken/written differently by various social groups (sociolinguistics) and in various Spanish-speaking countries (dialectology). Taught in Spanish Reflection: During my college stance all my Spanish classes were more focus in literature. Don't get me wrong I love literature, but we have to realize that everything thats has to do with linguistics is pretty amazing. In this class I learned how to write and express myself in a formal way. I always believe that I was an expert writing but in this class I realize that I was wrong. No matter this I was able to improve my writing and reading and also I was able to learn some of to manny linguistics rules that I'm gonna be teaching in the future for the Spanish learners students.
