The Critical Period Hypothesis
The end of the critical period is the point at which the nature of language learning changes from being an automatically engaged process to one in which it becomes yet another cognitive activity, a modularity organized on the basis of information-processing stages: input, central processing, and output (Skehan 233, 283).
Differences between L1 Acquisition and L2 Learning
But L2 learning is different. The bulk of the evidence indeed comes from sentences the learner hears—positive evidence from linguistic input. But the L2 learners also has the L1 available to them. Negative evidence can be used to work out what does not occur in L2 but might be expected to occur if it were like L1.

Its main principles of IPA:
there should be a separate letter for each distinctive sound, and that the same symbol should be used for that sound in any language in which it appears. The alphabet was to consist of as many Roman alphabet letters as possible, using new letters and diacritics only when absolutely necessary.

Speech Sounds
Phonetics
Study of Speech Sound Phonology
Phonetics studies how speech sounds are produced, transmitted, and perceived.
Articulatory Phonetics is the study of the production of speech sounds. Acoustic Phonetics is the study of the physical properties of speech sounds. Perceptual or Auditory Phonetics is concerned with the perception of speech sounds.

Through language, children learn the values, norms, and beliefs of the culture in which they are raised, becoming socialized into that culture's ways of thinking and living
Language reflections cultural values
The language we speak codes cultural norms, beliefs, and values It reflects how people in a culture view of the world and interact with each other
Language is the primary tool for organizing and expressing thought, which in turn shapes the way people view the world and contact with it
Language services as a repository for cultural knowledge, conditions, and practices, passing them down through generations

By the same token, we are too prone to reject knowledge for which we cannot find an immediate practical application.”Chapter 1When we study human language, we are approaching what some might call the “human essence”, the distinctive qualities of mind that are, so far as we know, unique to man. (Noam Chomsky, 1972, Language and Mind)●乔姆斯基(Noam Chomsky, 1928--)●“Chomsky is currently among the most-cited writers in all of the humanities(behind only Marx, Lenin, Shakespeare, Aristotle, Plato, and Freud) and the only living number of the top ten.” (Pinker,1994)● 1.

Determiner: all the articles,demonstratives, and quantifiers that appear before the noun and its modifiers. According to Quirk, et al., there are three sub-classes of determiners.
• A unit of expression that native speakers may recognize by intuition, whether it is expressed in spoken or written form. – A vague definition.
• Three senses are involved in defining “word”, none of which is satisfactory to cope with all the situations. • (1) A physical unit : a cluster of sound segments or letters between two pauses or blanks, • eg • ƒ Phonological: [ɪt ɪz ˈwʌndəfl] • ƒ Orthographic: It is wonderful . • ƒ Three words are recognized.

Common aspects of language agreed upon by the linguists:
a system a system of verbal symbols Communication is one of the major functions of language though language can also be said to perform other functions. Human language Language is arbitrary in the sense that the relation between speech sounds (form) and the ideas the sounds convey (meaning) is arbitrary.

Complementary antonyms
Note
Linguistic forms having the same sense may have different references in different situations; on the other hand, there are also occasions, when linguistic forms with the same reference might differ in sense, e.g. the morning star and the evening star, rising sun in the morning and the sunset at dusk.
Meaning should be studied in terms of situation, use, contex—elements closely linked with language behavior. Two types of contexts are recognized: Situational context: spatiotemporal situation Linguistic context: the probability of a word’s cooccurrence or collocation.

Linguistics is a systematic study of language. •Language is a system of verbal, arbitrary symbols for human communications.3. Design features of languageDesign features: the features that define human languages.▲arbitrariness▲duality▲creativity▲displacement4. Do animals have languages?5. Perspectives of language studiesLanguage involves three activities:a. Human brainb. muscular activity of the bodyc. social activity•5.1 Language as innate天生的human knowledge Noam Chomsky (1928-)•Institute Professor; Professor of Linguistics Language Acquisition Device (LAD) or Universal Grammar (UG)language acquisition is innately(biologically ) determined, that we‘re born with a genetic capacity that predisposes us to a systematic perception of language around us, resulting in the construction of an internalized system of language. (innateness hypotheses)•Cook(1985) defines UG as being made up of ―the language properties inherent in the human mind.‖•There are 2 components which contribute to language acquisition:※the innate knowledge of the learner (UG: principles)※the environment (parameter)•5.2 Language as a fixed codeLanguage is a code, namely, it is the sets of phonological, morphological, syntactic and semantic rules that, together with the lexicon, can be used to construct any or all sentences of a language; •when these sentences are combined into larger units, we get texts.•5.3 Language as a system•5.4 Language as interaction•― Language and communication are the two sides of the sa me coin‖.Implications for classroom teaching •(1)to provide opportunities for communication. ••(2)To provide opportunities for group work.6. Functions of language•6.1 Referential functionInformational信息的, or referential指示的, or ideational概念的function is associated with what objects and ideas are called and how events are described.•6.2 Interpersonal functionIt is concerned with interaction betw. the addresser and addressee in a discourse 交谈situation and the addresser‘s attitude toward what he speaks or writes about.•6.3 Performative function•6.4.

Important distinctions in linguisticsLinguistic pairs(1) Competence能力& Performance表现Competence: one‘s underlying潜在的knowledge of a system, event, or fact; non-observable ability to do sth., to perform sth.•Performance: overtly明显的observable and concrete manifestation or realization of competence; the actual doing of sth.Language competence and performance •(2) Descriptive(描述式) vs. prescriptive (规定式)• A linguistic study is descriptive if it describes and analyses facts observed; it is prescriptive if it tries to lay down rules for ―correct‖ behaviour.•Put it differently, if a linguist talks about ―what is in language or ―what people actually say‖, he is descriptive; if he tells people ―what should be in language‖•Or ― what people should say‖, he is prescriptive.(3) Synchronic (共时)and Diachronic (历时)The description of a language at some point in time is a synchronic study; the description of a language as it changes through time is a diachronic study.(4) Langue and paroleThis is a distinction made by the Swiss linguist F. de Saussure early last century. Langue refers to the abstract linguistic system shared by all the members of a speech community; Parole refers to the actualized language, or realization of langue.•Langue: the structure of the language •Parole: the actual utterances•This pair is similar to the pair of competence and performance.Session 2: major branches of linguistics •1. Phonetics语音学and phonology音韵学Phonetics is the science which studies the characteristics of human sound-making, especially those sounds used in speech, and provides methods for their description, classification and transcription录音.◆articulatory phonetics(发音语音学)auditory phonetics(听觉语音学) •acoustic phonetics(声学语音学) •Phonology is the study of sound systems–the inventory of distinctive sounds that occur in a language and the patterns into which they fall. Phonology identifies the set of speech sounds for each language, how they are arranged to form meaningful units, and the function of each sound..Phonology reveals what the possible combinations of sounds in a language are and explains why certain words take the form they do.2. Morphologythe branch of linguistics that studies the internal structure of words and the rules by which words are formed.•3. Syntaxthe study of how sentences are properly formed out of words of a language.4. Semanticsthe study of meaning•5. Pragmatics•In daily conversations, we see participants successfully communicating because they share certain kinds of ―background information‘ and expectations: each other‘s ‗biographies‘, the way conversations are organized, how they are to interpreteach other‘s meanings and intentions,•how they can regulate and co-ordinate turn-taking, what and how they must contribute in order for the conversation to work.•In other words, participants reveal their linguistic and communicative competence in relating linguistic forms to the context of the communication and in using their cognitive ‗powers‘ to work out logically the state of play of the interaction. the study of meaning in actual situations; sp eaker‘s meaning, utterance meaning or contextual meaning; language in use.Pragmatics = meaning - semantics Pragmatics: the study of the use of language in communication, particularly the relationship between sentences & the contexts and situations in which they are used. It includes the study of :Morris(1976) distinguishes syntax, semantics and pragmatics in the following way:Syntactics (syntax): the relation among linguistic signs。
