NOR-2017: Regulation and correctness of language Work Load
10 credits (ECTS) | Objectives
Students will analyse central standardisation issues - and the degree to which national, social and educational considerations have formed the basis for standardisation of Norway''s two written languages. They must furthermore acquire the knowledge necessary for the evaluation of the linguistic quality of various texts, from newspapers, public sector language use and various types of specialist language. | Contents
The course includes language standardisation theory, the standardisation of the written standards bokmål and nynorsk in a historical perspective, and current questions in the standardisation of the two standards. Also questions of language correctness will be discussed, e.g. a discussion of why one way of expressing oneself can be seen as better than another.
Required previous qualifications / courses: General study qualifications.
Recommended previous qualifications / courses: NOR-1000 language courses, although others without specific previous qualifications can also take this course. | Form of teaching
The course will be taught in the spring semester.
Teaching will take the form of a combination of lectures and seminars. The primary objective of teaching in the first 12 weeks of the semester will be to give students a basis for them to write a semester assignment relating to language standardisation/linguistic correctness. Students choose the subject of their assignment in consultation with the course tutor. The initial teaching phase will be followed by a tuition-free period of four weeks, during which time students will work on their semester assignments. Teaching at the end of the semester will cover topics on which students will be examined orally.
Students must submit a reading list before 1 April for approval by the course tutor.
