Course objectives
The course is intended mainly for those students who feel the need to enlarge their vocabulary. Without sufficient lexis, memorized and automatic, it is not possible to achieve fluent speaking and it also makes it more difficult to write. The course aims at enlarging students` vocabulary by exploring various topics and subject fields. If the students succeed in enlarging their passive vocabulary, the course will be successful. If the same can be said of the students` active vocabulary, the aim of the course will be fulfilled. Computer skills, creative thinking and the willingness to play are welcome.
