This seminar will provide you with an overview of the differences between British and American English grammar. Whereas the focus in British vs American English has largely been on pronunciation and lexis, more recent corpus-based approaches have shown that British-American differences can also be found on a grammatical level. Next to having a closer looker at selected studies, we will also deal with some theoretical background and discuss some explanations put forward for the development of differences (and similarities) between British and American English. |
