Answer 1

THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN BOTH ARE AS FOLLOWS

BA FUNCTIONAL ENGLISH IS A SUBJECT WHERE THE PRACTICAL METHOD OF LEARNING ENGLISH LIKE MAKING CONVERSATIONS, KNOWLEDGE ABOUT PHONETICS, GRAMMAR etc ARE TAUGHT. ALSO SITUATIONS ARE GIVEN AND STUDENTS ARE ASKED TO MAKE CONVERSATIONS BASED ON THE SITUATION, HENCE ONE WHO STUDIES FUNCTIONAL ENGLISH CAN SPEAK ENGLISH FLUENTLY. ALSO PRACTICE IN WRITING IS ALSO THERE.

WHEREAS IN BA ENGLISH LITERATURE APART FROM GRAMMAR AND PHONETICS THE HISTORY OF ENGLISH LITERATURE IS GIVEN IMPORTANCE, IT COVERS MANY LITERARY PERSONALITIES LIKE Shakespeare, MILTON,

SHELLY,KEATS etc. ALSO IT GIVES MORE EMPHASIS ON WRITING PART AND HISTORY ABOUT PROSE, POETRY,DRAMA,CRITICISM etc

HENCE ONE WHO LEARN LITERATURE WONT BE FLUENT IN THE SPEAKING PART, AND ONE WHO STUDIES FUNCTIONAL ENGLISH WONT BE SOUND IN THE HISTORY OF ENGLISH
