I. DESKRIPSI MATA KULIAH
Semantics provides an introductory study on meaning in language with a focus on
English, covering such topics as propositions, referring expressions, universes of
discourse, synonyms, antonyms, hyponyms, homonymy, polysemy, derivation,
participant roles, and speech acts. During the course, learning mostly through inquiry
and discovery, students are introduced to defined concepts with clarifying examples
followed by exercises in applying the principles involved. On the whole, they are
presented with cases pertinent to the topics and analyze the cases in prescribed ways.
II. STANDAR KOMPETENSI MATA KULIAH
At the end of the course students will achieve a competency in conducting studies on
meaning in language, indicated by an awareness of the various aspects of meaning in
language and an experience and ability in analyzing meaning in verbal communication.
