Teaching materials

The manual is recommended for practical lessons on morphology of the modern Ukrainian literary language for students of Slavonic, Iranian, Arabic and Japanese studies. A list of important topics and plans for the course, recommended readings, a system of practical tasks, schemes of parts of speech analysis, control questions and tasks are provided. The teaching of the parts of a language in a comparative perspective with Slavic and Eastern languages is regulated by Appendices. Alongside the traditional tasks and questions, such questions are offered that reflect the latest trends in the study of grammatical phenomena and the different principles of classifying parts of speech.

For students of philology in the majors of Slavic, Arabic, Persian, Japanese languages, literary art and applied linguistics.

The manual contains tasks for 17 practical lessons in historical phonetics, morphology and syntax, which cover the main topics of the course in historical grammar, as well as brief linguistic and historical commentaries for each of the practical lessons. It also includes model tests on historical phonetics and morphology and a number of scholarly works on the origins and main historical stages in the development of the Ukrainian language. The manual is intended for students of the Philological faculties of universities.

The workshop is based on the morphemics and derivatology syllabus for students of the Ukrainian Department of the Faculty of Philology. It contains a list of theoretical questions and a set of exercises, as well as test assignments for practical classes and students’ individual work in the course. The teaching material on morphemics and derivatology is grouped into two blocks: the first is based on an anatomical approach to the study of morpheme classes of different parts of speech and ways of word formation, and the second on a comprehensive analysis of the peculiarities of the morphemic and word-formation structure of each of the major parts of speech in particular. The second block is recommended for students’ individual work in the Modular Rating Method of Instruction. Each topic is accompanied by methodological comments on how to identify morphemes, difficult cases of morpheme analysis and the stages of word-formation analysis of words with different word-formation structures. The exercises are accompanied by examples to make it easier for a student to do them, and the literature they should work with before completing the tasks. The vast majority of the exercises are research-based, requiring students to activate their knowledge of previous and parallel courses (lexicology and phraseology, phonology and phonetics, historical grammar) and the ability to use different types of dictionaries.

“I try to sit down and write in the mornings before my teaching and meetings begin — even if it’s just a half hour of putting new thoughts into words. Once I have done that, in the afternoon and evening I indulge myself in translating. Translation has always been a way of reading deeply and focusing my thoughts around language. It’s...

The Grand Futurological Congress

06.05.2024 | 14:41

We live in a volatile and elusive world where the future is difficult to envision as anything other than crises, disasters, and unprecedented change. Such a situation can make one feel perplexed, powerless, and disheartened. It’s increasingly challenging to think comprehensively. It’s becoming more difficult to make long-term plans and carry them out together. It’s even more challenging to look into the future at all. But literature helps us do that.
To show how we’ve convened a five-night Grand Futurological Congress...
