Learning outcomes
The aim of the course is to provide the students of chemical-biological fields of study with a minimum in grammar and with essential terminology. Grammar is focused on, particularly grammatical rules connected to substantives, adjectives, verbs, and numerals. The considered vocabulary covers essential terms connected to the parts of the human body and to special medical expressions. Based on this knowledge, student should be able to understand and formulate medical and laboratorial reports.
Students should acquire grammar rules relevant to nouns, adjectives, verbs, numerals. They should gain basic terms concerning human body, technical medical terms, they should understand and formulate medical and laboratory statements with using Greek-Latin terminology.
Prerequisites
unspecified
