Abstract

Arabic III leads to A2.1 level on the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. Arabic III is the third part (A2.1 level) of a four-semester Arabic course. The practice exercises relate to simple discursive situations in daily life. In terms of grammar, special importance is attached to systematically learning the Arabic verbal system.

Objective

Participants are able to use the Arabic language adequately in selected areas and can conduct themselves in a culturally appropriate manner. To this end, the following content is dealt with: Talking about your life; daily routines; expressing wishes, commands, and eventualities; and talking about language and language learning (meta-language skills). Culturally, the focus is on useful phrases and appropriate conduct on important occasions such as holidays, weddings, births, and deaths. In terms of grammar, this course attaches particular importance to the systematization of the Arabic verbal system.
