By obtaining the minimum of credits in basic training subjects, students have demonstrated to have acquired the basic competences and they will be able to express themselves orally and in writing. For this reason, any spelling and expression errors that may be committed will lead to a score decrease in the final grade.
It is also expected that students know the general rules of submission of an academic work. However, students could apply the specific rules that the teacher of the subject may indicate to them, if they deem it necessary.
It is not essential, but it is recommended, the possession of some basic knowledge of the Latin language.
"Historical Grammar of Spanish" is an introductory course to the historical study of the language, both in general (linguistic change) and particular (the concrete evolution of Spanish).
The aim of the subject is for the student to acquire a general vision of the different stages of evolution of Spanish, with special emphasis on the graphematic and phonic changes of the Spanish linguistic system, as well as an initial mastery of the tools of diachronic study of a language.
At the end of the course students must be able to:
Topic 1. Historical linguistics and language change.
Topic 2. Types of language change.
Topic 3. History of the Spanish language. Linguistic evolution from an external perspective: from pre-Roman languages to modern Spanish.
Topic 4. Historical grammar. Linguistic evolution from the internal perspective: graphology, phonetics and phonology from Latin to Spanish.
The student must carry up a continuous follow-up of the subject.
In order to achieve the aforementioned objectives, theoretical explanations will be combined by the teacher (where the methodology and the basic tools of the historical study of the language will be shown) with the practical realization of exercises in the classroom (mainly focused on the identification of the graphic and phonic changes experienced by Spanish from Latin to the present).
The realization of one theoretical-practical test, one theoretical test and a practical evaluative activity will be required.
The learning of this subject by the student is distributed as follows:
- These activities are distributed in theoretical classes (55%) and classroom practices (45%)
Title | Hours | ECTS | Learning Outcomes |
---|---|---|---|
Type: Directed | |||
Classroom practices | 24.5 | 0.98 | 3 |
Theoretical classes | 30 | 1.2 | 3 |
Type: Supervised | |||
Activities | 7.5 | 0.3 | 14, 19, 12, 7 |
Mandatory readings | 7.5 | 0.3 | 12 |
Type: Autonomous | |||
Elaboration of the activities | 20 | 0.8 | 15, 12, 7 |
Preparation of partial tests and final test | 56 | 2.24 | 3, 19 |
The faculty will evaluate this subject on an ongoing basis through the realization of one theoretical-practical test, one theoretical test and a practical evaluative activity.
The evaluation will be distributed as follows:
The evaluation of the subject will be carried out, therefore, starting from the realization of three activities / tests in which the following aspects will be evaluated:
The three activities / tests to be carried out are the following:
To pass the subject all the evaluation activities must be done. The final grade, once all the notes have been added and the percentages indicated above applied, must be equal to or greater than 5.
The completion of spelling, expression, lexicon and syntax will have a penalty of 0.2 each, without limit, on the final grade in the activities and exams. Repeated faults also discount.
In the event of a student committing any irregularity that may lead to a significant variation in the grade awarded to an assessmentactivity, the student will be given a zero for this activity, regardless of any disciplinary process that may take place. In the event of several irregularities in assessment activities of the same subject, the student will be given a zero as the final grade for this subject.
The student will be considered "not evaluable" if delivered only 45% of the evaluable evidence. The elaboration of more than 45% of the tests will mean, then, the will of the student to be evaluated in the subject and, therefore, his presentation to the evaluation.
Re-evaluation
All evaluation activities are recoverable. However, the student will lose the right to reassess if the average of the tests performed with the corresponding percentage is less than 3.5 points. If the student has the right to reassessment, he can only reassess at most two tests. Moreover, it should be taken into account that in order to be eligible for re-evaluation, students are obliged to attend all the evaluable tests.
In the event that tests or exams cannot be taken onsite, they will be adapted to an online format made available through the UAB’s virtual tools (original weighting will be maintained). Homework, activities and class participation will be carried out through forums, wikis and/or discussion on Teams, etc.Lecturers will ensure that students are able to access these virtual tools, or will offer them feasible alternatives.

Practical evaluation activity | 50% | 1.5 | 0.06 | 1, 3, 14, 13, 19, 16, 12, 11, 7, 6, 18 |
Theoretical and practical test | 20% | 1.5 | 0.06 | 1, 3, 15, 9, 12, 11, 18 |
Theoretical classes | 30% | 1.5 | 0.06 | 3, 2, 15, 5, 9, 10, 14, 13, 19, 16, 17, 12, 11, 20, 4, 7, 6, 8 |

The teacher will indicate recommended and mandatory readings for each content.
