Cíle předmětu
The course presents the English grammar as a tool which enables users of English to achieve their purposes in communication and tries to help language learners to realise that grammar is used in a different way in spoken and written interaction and is further modified by the context of language use. The student applies the knowledge gained in Syntax A and Syntax B courses and is able to put it into the communicative and functional context. The English grammar is thus viewed as a tool that enables him to achieve his particular communicative intentions and to interpret authentic English texts. Having completed the course, the students will be able to utilize and practise the communicative appproach in the study and/or teaching of English syntax. They will understand English grammatical structures at sentence level with regards to their function as statements, questions, directives and exclamatives. Also, they will comprehend the meaning in connected discourse (utterance level), such as linking signals and constructions, word order and emphasis, functional sentence perspective etc. Throughout the semester students are encouraged to link theory in the classroom to practice at schools via practical tasks.
