  1. Final Review • Syntax • Semantics/Pragmatics • Sociolinguistics • FINAL will be part open book, and part closed book • Will use similar tasks as Problem Sets • Open book part includes one page of written (OK to type) notes (front and back, normal size paper)

  2. Syntax Review • Without book: • Identify the category of each word in a sentence (I will give you the categories) • Identify phrases in a sentence, identify heads, specifiers and complements of phrases and identify which phrase is a complement of which phrase (including CPs!) • Be able to write the deep structure forms of questions in English • With book: • Be able to draw phrase structure trees

  3. Semantics Review • Without book: • Identify the thematic role of NPs in sentence • Determine if a sentence is structurally or lexically ambiguous and how • Be able to discuss and give examples of Grice’s conversational Maxims • Be able to identify the relation between words/phrases (paraphrase, synonyms, etc.)

  4. Sociolinguistics Review • With book: • Be able to identify myths about language variation from a descriptive point of view (not prescriptive) e.g.: Some dialects are more grammatical than others • Be able to provide 2examples of linguistic variation (based on region, class, sex, race, age, etc) and to identify what type of linguistic variation it is (lexical, syntactic, phonological, etc) – use your experience, book as data (can use examples from other languages but be sure to describe – if sounds, then use IPA) • Be able to answer True/False statements about the chapter – at least what we talked about in class
