Cíle předmětu
'Grammar B' course is designed for the 1st year students as an introductory course consolidating and developing their knowledge of English grammar. The course is a continuation of course Grammar A taught in the previous term.
The main objective of the course is to present grammar as a system and study it as a complex whole with focus on functions and meanings. The course builds on the students' knowledge of basic linguistic terminology, which they acquired in the previous course. At the end of the course students will be able to (SWBAT)compare sentences in terms of grammar and meaning as well as compare Czech and English grammar where such comparison is noteworthy; SWBAT correct mistakes in sentences and provide correct option(s); SWBAT provide explanations and examples of their own; SWBAT analyze stretches of language and justify choices of structures, and identify the speaker's attitudes and intentions; SWBAT identify the most common problems in the use of English by Czech learners, mainly due to interference of Czech.
