English Language

UPDATED 20161104 11:37:14

Although English Language builds on your GCSE knowledge, it is quite different and can be challenging. We explore all aspects of written and spoken modes and you will confidently bandy around such terms as phonetics, graphology, lexis, semantics and pragmatics in order to help you explain the effects of different language use. Not only will you study texts from lots of different sources (everything from 17th century advertising to 21st century websites, Samuel Johnson to Ricky Gervais) but you will also become a creative writer and investigative language analyst. How do men and women use language differently? The challenge continues as we explore how the English Language has changed since 1600 and how is it changing still? How do children learn language? Why do we have one child but not two childs? If you were to bite the bullet and choose English, why exactly would you risk breaking your teeth?
