Learning outcomes
Lectures and seminars are mainly devoted to selected features of sentence and clause complex syntax. In connection to Syntax I and Morphology I students break in more details of simple sentence structure and thanks to that they get rid of some unreliable advices and simplified explanations about clausal elements and clausal structure from previous educational stages. Aside from the viewpoints of sentence and clause complex structures are also applied communicative viewpoints and even hyper-clausal viewpoints are anticipated as a preparation for Text linguistics in follow-up masters study programme. Part of work in seminars is study and presentation of expletory periodical literature, analysis, description and explanation of syntactical features, constructional procedure. Abilities to analyse describe and explain structure of simple sentence and clause complex are checked continuously. Syntactical topics are confronted with current speech and pedagogical practice.
Student can describe grammatical and semantical aspect of clausal elements, simple sentence and clause complex; apply punctuation rules; propositional contents and express them in language adequately; express identical propositional content by different grammatical structures and be aware of grammatical concordances and differences; speak about syntactical features clearly and in correct terminology; in speech practice register less common and uncommon syntactical structures and think about them; recommend correct and appropriate solution.
