DurationLearn one of the most fascinating languages in the world! The study of Chinese opens your mind to a new way of thinking and seeing the world. The two introductory courses (CHIN 1001H and 1002H) give you the ability to communicate in Chinese and to start learning some written Chinese characters.
Emphasis is placed on understanding how to pronounce the language properly, communicating in real-life situations, and being able to engage in Chinese culture through both the spoken and written forms of the language.
In addition to the in-class work, students are encourage to get involved in extracurricular activities including the Language Festival, Chinese cultural events, and even the annual Chinese speech contest, where several Trent students have participated in the past, to great acclaim.
No previous knowledge of Chinese is required for the introductory course; students with a background in Chinese should talk to the instructor before registering.
Upper-year courses include CHIN 2100H, which is a continuation of Chinese language study through the exploration of Chinese film. Note that courses in Chinese may be counted toward both the Option in Linguistics and the Option in Languages.
Learn a new language. Prepare for the future. Start right here. Now is the time to complement and augment your degree – whether you’re planning for your first year of study or your final year. Through the Trent Centre for Language and Linguistics, you can learn a new language (from scratch!), build on what you already know, or delve into the scientific study of language with linguistics.
And as you learn, you’ll be building your résumé, preparing for the future, and all the while opening yourself up to the new perspectives and possibilities that come being able to communicate with more people in more places, at home and around the world. Without setting foot off campus (but opportunities to do so exist!), you will be exposed to new cultures as you immerse yourself in language learning.
Choose to learn American Sign Language (ASL), Arabic, French, German, Italian, Mandarin Chinese, Russian or Spanish. Learn an Indigenous language – Mohawk or Nishnaabemowin – through our cooperation with the Indigenous Studies department. Explore the ancient world by taking a course in Latin or ancient Greek.
Or pursue the Option in Languages or the Option in Linguistics, to complement your major(s). These options will provide you with an introduction to linguistics and a chance to focus on one or more languages.
