French and Linguistics - BA (Hons)

University of Oxford

This course allows students to study one modern language in depth together with linguistics, the study of language itself. Part of your course will consist of developing your practical language skills to a high level, and you will also explore the literature and culture of the relevant language. In your study of linguistics, you will be introduced to the analysis of the nature and structure of human language (including topics such as how words and sentences are formed, how we make and hear sounds, how languages change and vary and how language is organised in the brain) and you will apply these ideas to the study of your chosen language.
