CHINLANG 20B: Advanced Conversational Cantonese, Second Quarter
Continuation of
CHINLANG 20A. This is the second of the 3-course series on advanced Cantonese. The primary objective of the advanced series is to help students become proficient speakers so that they can talk about a wide range of topics: students (a) review movies, (b) describe their communities, (c) narrate events in different time frames, and (d) talk about current events and topics of interest to them. Linguistic structures for textual cohesion, subordinating and coordinating sentences, and foregrounding and backgrounding information are emphasized. Authentic materials such as movies and news clips are incorporated in the courses and Internet tools are used to enhance learning. There is also an optional field trip to a karaoke bar, a dim sum restaurant, or a Cantonese community every quarter to experience Cantonese culture. Prerequisite:
