Essay from the year 2008 in the subject American Studies – Linguistics, University of Debrecen (Regnum-M educational Co.), course: university essay workshop, language: English, abstract: How to make linguistics enjoyable?
What is linguistics for me and linguistics approaches in everyday speech?
I studied linguistics before, or at least my college professor did all the efforts to teach me. I have never been against it; however, it is rather hard to grab the essence of this wonderful discipline sometimes. For all this, I would give it a try. In the first Unit we come across an interesting dialog between two teenagers, actually presenting a joke of which punchline is perfectly collaborated and understood by all of them. The principle task is to collect similar dialogs and analyze them from a linguistic point of view. I do not want to repeat the linguistic analysis of the two kids exploring the joke of the chicken that crossed the road, therefore I have tried to seek similar examples. In order to work out a life-like situation, I have opted for two names; let us have Jessica and James talking to each other in the first dialog.
