Research in German  

Research in a modern language typically focuses on the culture(s) in which the language is prominent, not in the language itself. However, when the language itself is analyzed, it is analyzed linguistically by looking at word(s) usage, derivations, and history. Research can also be conducted in the literature of a modern language.

Remember to use your specific course guide if you have had a library session.
