Culture of Polish Language II

obligatory courses

Blended learning

The aim of the course is to develop language awareness and the ability to use the language correctly in its grammatical layer (inflection, syntax), and to familiarize students with the most difficult problems of Polish spelling and punctuation, as well as the normative issues of Polish pronunciation. Students become equipped with the tools allowing to notice changes in the language and to assess them on their own.

The course is designed to familiarize students with the most important normative problems of the contemporary Polish in terms of pronunciation, spelling, punctuation, inflection, syntax, and the mechanisms of language errors in this regard. Classes are devoted to grammar (inflection and syntax). Students, guided by the teacher, shall review various contemporary texts. The COME online course concerns pronunciation, spelling and punctuation. During the monographic lecture, the lecturer discusses one selected issue concerning the contemporary Polish language.

All exercise groups follow the same program.
