This course on the science of human language will focus on areas of linguistics that connect to biology, physics, computer science, and brain science. Students will watch videos in which linguistic concepts such as the physics of human language or the biology of sound production are explained carefully and in detail before live classes in which the instructor and students will engage in exploring interesting applications, doing experiments, observing or collecting information, or asking and answering questions together. Topics include a general introduction, the subfields of linguistics, acoustic phonetics, articulatory phonetics, language disorders, the evolution of language, how humans acquire language, bilingualism, corpus linguistics, and brain studies comparing spoken and signed languages.
