230682 Multilingualism (BS) (WiSe 2022/2023)

Contents, comment

This block seminar explores aspects of multilingualism from a sociopragmatic perspective. It offers an introduction to concepts such as language acquisition, processing and the (strategic) use of more than one language in various contexts. In other words, we will learn about who “multilinguals” are, what terminology is used in the field and in what ways multilinguals acquire and use multiple language in their everyday lives. For example, we will examine to what extent multilingualism is tied to speakers’ bi- or multilingual identities. What is more, we will explore manifestations of multilingualism in diverse offline and online environments, i.e., focussing on linguistic forms and functions of multilingualism in various social, societal and social media settings. The course thus covers both basic theoretical issues as well as the application of theory to real-life data.

The course is recommended to both multi- and monolingual students who are interested in understanding and exploring multilingual environments from a linguistic point of view.

Further details are provided in the preparatory meeting on 17 January 2023, 14-15.
