2018 Fall: AFRICAM 31A 001 Intermediate Chichewa

This course reviews and expands students’ knowledge of fundamental structures from Elementary Chichewa and appropriate cultural contexts of these structures in oral and written communication. More grammar and vocabulary in a culturally and socially appropriate context is developed. Speaking ability is expanded through oral exercises, individual reports, class discussions, and recordings available at the Berkeley Language Center. Writing and reading are expanded through compositions, written exercises, and independent reading projects with texts available through Berkeley’s African Library Collection and supplemented by the instructor’s materials.
