LING 200: (How) Language Matters
3.00 Credits
California State University-Northridge
This course draws heavily from current issues in society to highlight the role of language. It explores strategies we use to construct and reflect our identities (as skaters, rappers, school girls, nerds, etc.), to form new meanings, and to accommodate popular new technologies (e.g., texting). This course also examines personal and societal perceptions and attitudes towards the language use and competence of others. Students will undertake a challenging, collaborative, hands-on analysis to appreciate (how) language matters. (Available for General Education, Arts and Humanities)

LING 250: Language(s) in California

LING 310: Language and the Law
3.00 Credits
California State University-Northridge
Determining what a written text or spoken utterance exactly conveys is nowhere more important than in the area of the law where subtle differences in wording can have drastic consequences in people’s lives. This course examines how language is used and interpreted in legal settings by applying insights from the linguistic fields of semantics, pragmatics, discourse analysis and sociolinguistics. The course has lifelong relevance for every citizen, since we can expect to sign contracts, receive a jury summons or engage in many other ways with the law and legal documents. The course emphasizes active student participation and an explicit connection between theory and practice. Students will be expected to apply their acquired knowledge to practical and - wherever possible - current societal issues. (Available for General Education, Lifelong Learning)

LING 427: Languages in Contact
3.00 Credits
California State University-Northridge
Preparatory: ANTH 310, ENGL 301 or COMS 420. This course examines various effects of language contact: the occurrence of lexical and grammatical borrowing, such as borrowings between English and Spanish, the emergence of pidgins and creoles and mixed languages along with the process of language attrition or death in the context of a dominant language. The course also addresses the ways in which speakers in multilingual speech communities navigate between the languages that they speak and the language planning efforts of multilingual communities that are aimed at controlling which language (variety) is used/taught in which setting such as the use of ASL versus signed English. Much of this course focuses on issues of special relevance to multilingual speech communities in the United States and on language contact effects between English and languages such as Armenian, Spanish, Russian, and Korean.
