In this course, you practise reading longer articles and looking up specific information in written texts. In the area of speaking and writing skills, you will work on difficult sentence structures such as formulating a sentence with past tense indications. You learn to make small nuances by correctly applying the past imperfect or past perfect tense. You will also become familiar with, for example, the conjunction “mentre” and other time indications.
