Lecture 1: Introduction
Languages are sets of signs. Signs combine an exponent (a sequence
of letters or sounds) with a meaning. Grammars are ways to generate
signs from more basic signs. Signs combine a form and a meaning,
and they are identical with neither their exponent nor with their meaning.
Before we start. I have tried to be as explicit as I could in preparing these notes.
You will find that some of the technicalities are demanding at first sight. Do
not panic! You are not expected to master these technicalities right away. The
technical character is basically due to my desire to be as explicit and detailed as
possible. For some of you this might actually be helpful. If you are not among
them you may want to read some other book on the side (which I encourage you to
do anyway). However, linguistics is getting increasingly formal and mathematical,
and you are well advised to get used to this style of doing science. So, if you do
not understand right away what I am saying, you will simply have to go over it
again and again. And keep asking questions! New words and technical terms
that are used for the first time are typed in bold-face. If you are supposed to
know what they mean, a definition will be given right away. The definition is
valid throughout the entire course, but be aware of the fact that other people might
define things differently. This applies when you read other books, for example.
You should beware of possible discrepancies in terminology. If you are not given
a definition elsewhere, be cautious. If you are given a different definition it does
not mean that the other books get it wrong. The symbol
