Cíle předmětu
The main goal of the course is to give bachelor students an overall survey of English syntax with an emphasis on the differences between the sentence structure in the English language and the students´ mother tongue, i.e. the Czech language. This course will raise students’ awareness of similarities and differences between English and their native language / mother tongue and thus enables them to identify potentially problematic areas for their future learners.
Výstupy z učení
This course enhances the acquisition of linguistic knowledge and teaching competencies indispensable for the professional development of future teachers of English, in particular communication and interpersonal skills, collaboration and teamwork, flexibility and adaptability (viz Strategic Aim 1, Strategies 2030). The students are expected: 1. to understand the linguistic terms from the area of English syntax; 2. to be capable of forming and using correctly the simple, complex and compound sentence; 3. to recognize the differences between the structure of the English and Czech sentence; 4. to be aware of the various possible ways of expressing different syntactic relationships; 4. to know how to form different types of dependent clauses (included embedded clauses); 5. to be able to analyse texts written in English and explain them while using appropriate terms from the area of English syntax.
