Psycholinquistics

general courses

Students should have knowledge of the grammar of the Ukrainian language.

The student should know the language at least B2+ level.

Classroom

The aim of the classes is to familiarize students with the problems of psycholinguistics. The Conversatory is connected with classes in confrontational grammar of Ukrainian and Polish, lexis and vocabulary, syntax, semantics of Ukrainian language, introduction to linguistics.

The aim of the Conversatory is to examine the problems of contemporary psycholinguistics as a science of linguistic communication on the borderline between psychology and linguistics.

During the classes the methodology of psycholinguistics, cognitive linguistics, ethnolinguistics, sociolinguistics, social psycholinguistics are considered.

During the classes students also learn the basics of applied psycholinguistics, including mass communication.

The linguistic material necessary for psycholinguistic analysis broadens the students' language skills, because the lectures are conducted in Ukrainian.

If it is not possible to conduct classes in a stationary form, the classes will be held using remote communication tools, most probably Google Meet and others recommended by the UW.
