Course aims
To provide a combination of textual knowledge and skills in using Estonian language study aids. To consciously improve proficiency in Estonian as a mother tongue in all its components (skills in reading and listening functionally, expressing oneself orally and in writing). If the student speaks another mother tongue, the person may practise all previously mentioned sub-skills and learn to consciously avoid the misuse occasionally taught by official and institutional language via bad texts.
Brief description of the course
An overview of the forms of Estonian and how to choose between them in different situations to encode the message effectively, appropriately and according to the situation. A brief introduction to common types of official texts. Common errors of expression in practical official usage and disadvantages arising when taking foreign texts as examples (e.g. in studies) are brought out. Skills in oral and written expression are improved, usage of sources of linguistic self-supervision (dictionaries, grammar textbooks, information from the Internet, linguistic advice) is practised, attention is given to common problems of style and correct usage.
