Long Description This course introduces students to Swedish, a melodic North Germanic language that traces its origin back to Old Norse - the language of the Vikings. In this proficiency-oriented course, students will develop the basic vocabulary and essential grammatical structures needed to build a solid foundation for speaking, listening, writing, and reading skills in Swedish. Emphasis is placed on communication and the cultural context within which Swedish is used. Classes are interactive and engaging, and emphasize the use of language as a tool for real-life communication skills. Students will be provided many opportunities to practice and use Swedish in meaningful contexts and to interact with authentic materials like music, social media, movies, and print media. By the end of this course, students should be able to understand and use basic words, memorized phrases, and simple sentences; ask and answer simple yes/no questions and some simple information questions; and engage in simple conversations about topics regularly encountered in daily life.
