Dec. 4th, 2008 03:36 pmI just bought my books for the spring, and it was a bit of an expensive proposition this semester. First run though, the price was $350, and I was able to drop it to $220. Mostly because of this stroke of luck:
Amazon UK: Introducing Phonology ( USED ) + Shipping = $47.82 USD
Amazon US: Introducing Phonology ( USED ) + Free Shipping = $82.50 USD
And then getting all the rest of the books used, which was about $5 - $15 dollars cheaper than the cover price.
I have no idea when the shipments for all of these will come in before or after I leave for Christmas break, but, they're ordered and I'll have them before classes start.
My final class list is: Language Structure (Japanese), Language Change and Historical Linguistics, Phonology, Phonetics, and Classical Mythology. I find it hilarious that I could have taken these same courses in 1909 even though I'm taking them in 2009. And I decided I am going to try for a minor in Classical Studies, with a concentration in Culture and Literature. Mostly because I need three more classes for my linguistics degree: Syntax, Field Methods I, and a 300 level course in Spanish. For a minor in classical studies, I would need three classes.
