Albania

Would you like to start speaking one of the oldest languages in the Balkans? Would you like to learn Albanian? Would you like to know more about its culture and traditions? Then welcome to the Albanian language course! 

Here are two facts about it:

In the family of Indo-European languages it is a branch of its own. 

Its alphabet has 36 six letters, from which two are diacritical letters (ë and ç).

In this course you will get to know and learn the basics of the spoken Albanian language. We will focus on concrete examples using the colloquial and most useful vocabulary in everyday life. Cultural and traditional aspects will be thoroughly integrated throughout the course in order to help you gain a holistic and comprehensive understanding of the language use.

This course will take place in a hybrid mode, so you can opt to join online or in person. It is intended to be implemented in a laid-back manner, where the main aims revolve around communication and cultural awareness. 

Key themes involve: introducing ourselves and getting to know others, greetings and courtesy words, talking about our family, describing physical appearance and personality, albanian hospitality, a day as a customer in albanian traditional markets, food and culinary.   

Tämä kurssi kuuluu kielten kursseissa yleiskursseihin, joissa harjoitellaan kaikkia kielen osa-alueita: kuullun ja luetun ymmärtämistä, puhumista ja kirjoittamista. Usein käytetään oppikirjaa ja tehdään kotitehtäviä. Yleiskurssit etenevät tasolta toiselta ja pitkän tähtäimen periaatteella.
