Prerequisite: Italian Intermediate conversation skills. This course combines conversation with grammar and is intended to make you more at ease with communications of moderate difficulty. You will be encouraged to "think in Italian" and to understand new grammar and vocabulary by relating them to the context in which they are used. The course will balance the introduction of new material with a review of the old, so that you have a solid understanding of both.
