There is a good collection of linguistics books and journals in the Barr Smith Library. Almost all the readings for this course are available online. Professor Zuckermann’s 2003 book is available in the Reserve Collection at the Barr Smith Library.

After successfully undertaking the course, students will:

1	locate accurate, reliable and up-to-date information on language contact and lexical expansion.
2	analyse contact between cultures as manifested in lexical items such as words and phrases.
3	apply linguistic, polychronic (both synchronic and diachronic) analytical techniques to lexical data.
4	demonstrate linguistic foundations for historical linguistics, contact linguistics, lexicology, lexicography (dictionary making), phonetics, morphology, semantics, revival linguistics and endangered languages.
5	write coherently about a range of issues concerning word biographies across languages.
6	analyse words morphologically, semantically and culturally.
7	recognize the power of hybridity, etymythology (popular etymology), language and identity.

Additional course-related material will be posted on MyUni, including Lecture Content, Announcements and other resources.

This course is delivered through a two-hour online lecture and one-hour tutorial each week. Lectures will provide much of the content, but will also provide opportunity for discussion of issues from time to time. Tutorials will be more focussed on practical engagement with language data, problem-solving and discussion. Formative work will be undertaken in tutorials to prepare students for the completion of summative assessment tasks.

1 x 2-hour lecture per week (x12) 24 hours
1 x 1-hour tutorial per week (x10) 10 hours
6 hours Reading per week (x12) 72 hours
2.5 hours Research per week (x12) 30 hours
2 hours Assignment Preparation per week (x10) 20 hours
Total 156 hours

Attendance of tutorials is compulsory. Students will be expected to complete additional exercises and small-scale investigations between tutorials. Application to these tasks will contribute to the 10% awarded to attendance and contribution (positive participation).
