Course Description
This course provides further development of materials presented in Elementary Korean (First Quarter). The focus is on intensive oral practice, which aims to broaden the language functions covered in the first quarter course and add new ones while placing a greater emphasis on student-generated discussion. To enhance comprehension, there is a greater emphasis on the cultural and historical background in the use of language. Written practice is incorporated into the course to further students' understanding of the underlying grammatical and syntactical structures, specifically targeting an extended range of basic/simple information relating to high-frequency situations.
