- activation of grammatical structures typical for technical language,
- application of principles of business correspondence,
respecting specific features of various languages. The stress is put not only on the development of communication skills, exploration of the structures of the language, but also on studying the culture of appropriate countries where the language is spoken. - Learning outcomes
