Module aim
• The objective of the course is to optimise the student’s skills in Modern Greek as a foreign/
second language.
• Students develop their language skills (writing, reading and speaking) at an advanced level
C1/C2- similar to that of the native speaker, using original sources.
• The participants get familiar with the advanced vocabulary and with the complex structures of
the Modern Greek Language, both in morphology and in syntax, in order to become acquainted
with the different forms of textual style (scholar or demotic/trivial) as well as with the cultural
and pragmatic context of the Modern Greek linguistic differentiation.
• At the end of the course participants should be able to receive and interpret texts on the base
of their content, structure and style and to respond in a similar level of form and content.
