Cíle předmětu
The main goal of the course is to master characteristic features of English syntax, mainly in comparison with the structure of the students´ mother tongue, the Czech language. The differences between the simple sentence, compound sentence and complex sentence will be studied, including all types of dependent clauses and complex condensation. This course will raise students’ awareness of similarities and differences between English and their native language / mother tongue and thus enables them to identify potentially problematic areas for their future learners.
Výstupy z učení
This course enhances the acquisition of linguistic knowledge and teaching competencies indispensable for the professional development of future teachers of English, in particular communication and interpersonal skills, collaboration and teamwork, flexibility and adaptability (viz Strategic Aim 1, Strategies 2030). The students: 1. understand the linguistic terms from the area of syntax and are able to explain them on concrete examples; 2. understand the structure of the complex and compound sentence, namely in comparison with the structure of the simple sentence, with an emphasis on the similarities and differences between English and Czech; 3. know the linguistic means for the expression of different relations in the English sentence, namely with the help of nominal, adverbial, relative and comparative clauses; 4. are capable of identifying concrete syntactic means in the written text, explain them and describe them with the help of adequate linguistic terms.
