LINGUIST 230C: Advanced Topics in Semantics & Pragmatics

We focus on a topic in the meaning and use of linguistic expressions to explore a number of central issues in semantics and pragmatics. These include quantification, binding, referentiality, presupposition, pragmatic inferences, context-dependency, indexicality, and systems of dynamic interpretation. Prerequisites: LINGUIST 230B or permission of the instructor.
Terms: Aut | Units: 1-4 | Repeatable 5 times (up to 20 units total)

LINGUIST 245A: Introduction to Psycholinguistics (LINGUIST 145, PSYCH 140)

How do people do things with language? How do we go from perceiving the acoustic waves that reach our ears to understanding that someone just announced the winner of the presidential election? How do we go from a thought to spelling that thought out in a sentence? How do babies learn language from scratch? This course is a theoretical introduction to psycholinguistics -- the study of how humans learn, represent, comprehend, and produce language. The course aims to provide students with a solid understanding of both the research methodologies used in psycholinguistic research and many of the well-established findings in the field. Topics covered include language acquisition, speech perception, word recognition, sentence processing, sentence production, and discourse and inference.

LINGUIST 250: Sociolinguistic Theory and Analysis

This is a seminar-style course for graduate students in linguistics and advanced students with a background in sociolinguistics. Through readings, discussions, and weekly response papers, we will explore the development of major themes and questions in the field of sociolinguistics.

LINGUIST 253: Race, Ethnicity, and Language: Racial, Ethnic, and Linguistic Formations (ANTHRO 320A, CSRE 389A, EDUC 389A, SYMSYS 389A)

Language, as a cultural resource for shaping our identities, is central to the concepts of race and ethnicity. This seminar explores the linguistic construction of race and ethnicity across a wide variety of contexts and communities. We begin with an examination of the concepts of race and ethnicity and what it means to be "doing race," both as scholarship and as part of our everyday lives. Throughout the course, we will take a comparative perspective and highlight how different racial/ethnic formations (Asian, Black, Latino, Native American, White, etc.) participate in similar, yet different, ways of drawing racial and ethnic distinctions. The seminar will draw heavily on scholarship in (linguistic) anthropology, sociolinguistics and education. We will explore how we talk and don't talk about race, how we both position ourselves and are positioned by others, how the way we talk can have real consequences on the trajectory of our lives, and how, despite this, we all participate in maintaining racial and ethnic hierarchies and inequality more generally, particularly in schools.
Terms: Aut | Units: 3-5

LINGUIST 259A: Introduction to Contact Linguistics

Language contact occurs when the speakers of two or more languages or varieties come interact with each other. In this introduction to Contact Linguistics, you will learn some of the structural outcomes of contact as they relate to the communities and individuals coming into contact. Prerequisites: Graduate standing or permission of instructor. Open to undergraduates with permission of instructor only.
Terms: Aut, Win | Units: 4
Instructors: Sims, N. (PI)

LINGUIST 259L: CVC Research Lab

Regular meetings of the Contact, Variation, and Change Research Lab. Meetings consist of presentations of research, discussions of readings, and collaborative research project work.
Terms: Aut, Win, Spr | Units: 1 | Repeatable 20 times (up to 20 units total)
Instructors: Sims, N. (PI)

LINGUIST 281A: Race and Natural Language Processing (CS 329R, PSYCH 257A)

The goal of this practicum is to integrate methods from natural language processing with social psychological perspectives on race to build practical systems that address significant societal issues. Readings will be drawn broadly from across the social sciences and computer science. Students will work with large, complex datasets and participate in research involving community partnerships relevant to race and natural language processing. Prerequisite: CS224N, PSYCH290, or equivalent background in natural language processing. Students interested in participating should complete the online application for permission at https://web.stanford.edu/class/cs329r/. Limited enrollment.
