This is an overview of different aspects contribute to the possibility of language in general before focusing on human language in particular. The course will then inform learners of different elements of language (i.e., morphemes, phonemes, syntax, pragmatics, semantics, etc.). The course will also introduce the notions of language acquisition (both L1 and L2). Ultimately, learners will be able to apply their understanding about all the studied language components into language teaching and learning.
