This class focuses on the synchronic grammatical systems of the Celtic languages and provides an overview of their more distinctive typological features, such as the phonology and morpho-syntax of initial mutations, and VSO syntax with its associated features. Primary focus is on the medieval Insular Celtic languages, but the Continental Celtic and the modern Insular Celtic languages will also be discussed.
