【授業の概要と目的（何を学ぶか） / Outline and objectives】
No language has ever been so extensively used on Earth as English is today. However, the language, spoken by well over 400 million people as a mother tongue, has developed a wide range of variations due to regional and social factors. This course aims to survey the phonetic, lexical and syntactic features of some varieties of standard English in the UK, North America and Australasia, with frequent reference to their historical and cultural backgrounds. Special attention is paid to Australian and NZ English, considering the increased significance of the southern hemisphere countries in business and education. It is often predicted that L2 speakers of English in Asia alone will likely outnumber monolingual English speakers of the Inner Circle within this century. Mention is made of Singapore English as an example of New Englishes.
【到達目標 / Goal】
By the end of the course, students will:
(1) better understand the richness and diversity of the English language,
(2) get familiar with the IPA vowel and consonant charts,
(3) be able to identify major English accents in the world, and
(4) become more familiar with the lexical/syntactic features of Canadian, Australian and NZ English in particular.
