Description and Contextualization of the SubjectToggle Navigation

"Basque Phonetics and Phonology II" is a compulsory subject in the 3rd year of Basque Studies, it is a continuation of the subject "Basque Phonetics and Phonology I". What is learned in "Basque Phonetics and Phonology l" about the fundamentals of phonetics will be used and applied in "Basque Phonetics and Phonology II" in order to do the phonological analysis, along with the phonological argumentation that will be taught as the phonological analysis progresses. The main objective of the subject is to train students for phonological analysis in different varieties of Basque, as well as to have a general vision of the phonology of Basque.

Ordinary Call: Orientations and DisclaimerToggle Navigation

This subject consists of two evaluation systems: continuous evaluation and final evaluation.



The qualification in the continuous evaluation is obtained as follows:



- Written test (topic analysis) (60%)

- Written test (data analysis) (30%)

- Group work (presentation of a mandatory reading) (10%)



To pass the subject you must complete the three tasks and pass all three.



The mandatory reading test will be the presentation before classmates, in mid-late November.

The written test of the analysis of the topics will be carried out in January (on the date set by the faculty).

The data analysis test will be carried out in practical sessions during the course and the exercise will be collected around December.



If there were any changes, it would be indicated in class and also communicated through eGela.



Students may carry out a final or non-continuous evaluation, presenting the official writing to the teacher during the first nine weeks.

The course grade will be obtained as follows:

- Written test (topic analysis) (60%)

- Written test (data analysis) (30%)

- Group work (presentation of a mandatory reading) (10%)

Regarding the analysis of the data, on the last day of class the student must submit to the teacher the phonological analysis of a variety of Basque. On the day of the exam, an appointment will be agreed with the teacher to defend the phonological analysis presented.



It will be necessary to obtain a minimum result in each exercise to pass the course.



If you wish to renounce the ordinary call, it will be enough to not appear for the exam.

Extraordinary Call: Orientations and DisclaimerToggle Navigation

The tests that must be passed in the extraordinary call are the following:
