This course is designed to provide students a general framework in order to appreciate how morpho-syntax play a significant role in language design and usage. The lesson deals with morphology covering structures of word , the meaning of words, how their spelling relates to pronunciation, how new words are manufactured or imported from other languages, and how the meaning of words changes with the passage of time and syntax concerned with sentence structure (how words are combined together to form complex sentences). The teaching-learning processes are conducted through lecturing, presentation, discussion, group assignments/group projects.

· Being able to complete simple projects on English morphology and syntax
