Course objectives
The course is a continuation of the Practical Exercises in Italian 3 and is focused on the further development and improvement of practical language knowledge and communicative skills of students, mastering more demanding passages of Italian grammar and also on expanding vocabulary. Listeners reach the level of individual users of the language. Recordings of longer speeches by native speakers (interviews, reports, excerpts from films) and reading moderately difficult literary and non-literary texts on current topics help develop students' ability to understand spoken and written words and serve as a basis for discussion and conversational and written exercises on common topics.

- deepen their knowledge of grammar, including the use of technical terminology;
