Portfolio Entry #6 : Systemic Functional Linguistics

Systemic functional linguistics (SFL) is an approach to linguistics that considers language as a social semiotic system. It was devised by Michael Halliday.Here, there are two interesting videos about this theory. I hope you find them useful.

Video 1: "Basic Principles of Systemic Functional                                   Linguistics"


Video 2: "An Introduction to Systemic Functional                                      Linguistics"

  4. I found this entry full of complete and useful information but I couldn't see my mark. Anyway, I think that you could integrate key concepts in this form. At the same time, Gforms are useful due to the fact of having pricise information rather than long texts which can be difficult to fully understand. Good job!!
