Cíle předmětu
The course is for students who are interested in authentic spoken English, notably face-to-face private conversation. Texts from 'A Corpus of English Conversation' (1980) and some other sources, for example MICASE (Michigan Corpus of Academic Spoken English), will be analysed and, based on the differences between spoken and written English, many features typical of conversational English, such as back-channels, false-starts, hedges, discourse markers, simultaneous speech, fillers, vague expressions, will be discussed in great detail. Presentations based on the study of some articles (according to students' interests and own choice) from corpus linguistics, for instance, on discourse tags, fillers, hedges, comment clauses, different types of non-fluencies, compliment formula, some differences between the ways women and men communicate, and expletives, will be prepared by individual students and discussed at class in the second half of the course.

Výukové metody
Mode of teaching: seminar Students must attend the course on a regular basis and prepare one presentation which is based on their own individual study of a topic connected with the analysis of spoken language. After each presentation the given topic is discussed in the whole group and then, based on their newly acquired knowledge, students analyse authentic texts with regard to the topic presented. Students either listen to some texts or are given them in the written form taken from a spoken language corpus such as LLC, MICASE.
