The course objective is to help students improve their Korean linguistic ability by learning intermediate/advanced Chinese four-letter idioms and Chinese words that used for higher level texts. The primary goal for this course is for students to learn most commonly used traditional Chinese idiomatic expressions, individual Chinese characters (Hanja) that comprise the idioms, and additional Chinese character-based words. By studying these idioms and Chinese words, students will improve their structural, lexical, and socio-cultural competences to include: knowledge and control of higher level vocabulary, idioms, and socio-cultural references. Students will learn 300-350 Chinese words used in Korean reading and listening commonly found in intermediate/advanced Chinese character examination (Hanja Level 8-7).
