Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

The aim of this seminar is to provide the student with the necessary tools for being capable of understanding the Arabic language in the media, with special focus on news related with politics and society.

We will work with current news related with politics and society (i.e. elections, refugees, natural disasters, explosions, international terrorism, etc.).
After hearing and reading the news, we will analyse all the vocabulary and the most important structures. Then we will practice the new contents.
Also, we will prepare a glossary with the new vocabulary (in Arabic, English and German).

Skills: Speaking skills, reading comprehension and listening comprehension.
