You will have been studying now long enough to have enough language to get by, with sufficient vocabulary to express yourself on topics such as family, hobbies and interests, work, travel, and current events. You will express opinions, comparisons, uncertainty, and doubts that take place in the past, the present, the future. You will start mastering more complex structure which include the use of subjunctive.
You are now using reasonably accurately a repertoire of frequently used "routines" and patterns associated with more predictable situations. As a result, you will keep going comprehensibly, even though pausing for grammatical and lexical planning and repair, especially in longer stretches of free production. You will also be able to initiate and maintain a face-to-face conversation on a wide range of topics. You will be able to read, write and express your thought in a more sophisticated manner whilst developing your understanding of more native speakers from different parts of Italy. You will start using idioms in your language production.

Topics: - Describe a dwelling - Describe a quality of life - Restaurant meals - Recipes - Mass media - News

Please note there will be no class on 29/05/25.
