This module is designed to consolidate linguistic competence in Catalan and expand knowledge of specific areas of grammar. Emphasis will be placed on oral and written competence, as it will be assumed that reading and listening competence are quite strong. The course is taught by three hours per week, all primarily in the target language, covering advanced grammar, translation, stylistics and oral and written production.

by taking the International Catalan Certificate issued by the Institut Ramon
Llull and held at the University of Birmingham.
