"Filipino 3 (Tagalog)"

  • 1 semester
  • 4,0 credits
  • 2 SWS ("Semesterwochenstunden": hours of lessons per week)

This pre-intermediate course in Filipino (Tagalog) is open throughout the university to students of various disciplines. Participants must have at least a B1 level in German, as the learning materials will be in German.

In the Filipino 3 course, we will delve more deeply into the various aspects of the Filipino language and culture. We will deal with more complex sentence structures and learn additional grammatical concepts. In addition, we will further develop our language skills in everyday situations and learn to navigate simple Tagalog communication. Throughout the course, we will explore object-focus verb forms and further expand our vocabulary.

Please note: This course builds on the skills taught in Filipino 1 and Filipino 2, and it is essential that students have a command of the fundamentals covered in those.

Marami pong salamat!
