Students will continue to develop the basic elements of communicative competence in both the spoken and written language within a cultural context.

The goal of this course is to continue building on the foundational Swedish skills introduced in 1A, and to increase focus on building vocabulary, grammar and reading skills while emphasizing conversational Swedish as it is used in everyday contexts. It will be taught in a communicative way i.e. in-class activities and homework will focus on speaking, reading, writing, and listening skills. To succeed in this course you must actively participate. Class will be conducted primarily in Swedish and students must pose questions in Swedish. You will be expected to attend class regularly, to prepare for class daily, and speak as much Swedish as possible. Textbooks Nothing to purchase in advance; students receive instructions on the first day of class.

Prerequisite: Swedish 1A or placement assessment.
