- The French Language II course focuses on the acquisition of knowledge and skills appropriate to the achievement of CECR Level B1. This goal will be achieved through the enrichment and professionalization of the language with targeted oral / written understanding / production, as well as the deepening of specialist vocabulary.

- Teaching methods
- Language reflection will be conducted through communicative and oriented approaches, with the main semiotic communication strategies
- Other information
- At the same time as the 1st and 2nd semester course, at the University Language Center (CLA), written and oral exercises will be held by native speakers in order to enable the student to acquire the necessary linguistic tools to support the examination.
- Learning verification modality
- The course provides for the following assessment of learning:
1. written test;
2. oral test.
An independent review is scheduled at the end of the CLA exercises. - Extended program
- The course will focus on the lexicology and the semantics of the French language. Particular attention will be given to the relationships of homonymy, synonymy, hypernyms and faux amis. The aim is to allow the student to expand his basic vocabulary, to improve it and to sharpen it, and also to raise reflection on the lexical creative mechanisms influenced not only by historical events but also by the migratory movements of peoples, by the evolution of societies and the communicative needs of the populations. Much space will be reserved for specialized translation and its difficulties. A separate chapter will be devoted to the translation of cinema and theater.
