Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

This class presents an overview of how linguistics deals with meaning. We look at what the subject matter is in general, what questions are asked, what we want from a good answer to those questons, and what the methods are to provide such answers. Of special importantce will be the the distinction between, and the interplay of, formal, time-less meaning, the subject matter of semantics, and situated communicative meaning (as far as it is general), the subject matter of pragmatics.

Assessment and permitted materials

Exam, online

You have a total of 90 minutes.
90 minutes after you started the exam (or at the end of the exam time, whichever is earlier) the exam will automatically close without warning.

There are 75 questions to answer.

The questions are weighted differently, the number of points for each question is given with the question.

Partially correct answers can lead to partial points.

The exam is open book. But you should be able to answer all questions by heart, i.e. none of the questions require research or reproduction of sources.
