Requisite(s): 97403 French Language and Culture 3

In addition to basic grammatical concepts, students are encouraged to explore more complex constructions such as writing formal letters and recognising literary French. They take active part in discussions on topical issues and are introduced to situations likely to arise while travelling in an area where the language is spoken.

Assessment: This subject has a combination of continuous assessment and final examinations for speaking, listening, reading and writing. Further details are available in the subject outline distributed in class during the first week of teaching.
