I simply loved my Syntax seminar/lecture. My major was computer science, but my minor was linguistics.

We learned German grammar, basically. But not prescriptive rules, but drawing C-trees and F-trees, constituent parts of a sentence and its functional relations. Writing down functional equations.

At one point we were discussing the phrase "every third ice cream" for a whole meeting.

I've recently came across my old notes and the lecturer's script, and I really want to revisit that.
