This course is the second of a two-semester online Bosnian/Croatian/Montenegrin/Serbian (BCMS) third-year course designed for students who have had two or more years of Bosnian-Croatian-Montenegrin-Serbian (BCMS) language. It is a practical course involving the advanced study of grammar, reading of texts on a variety of subjects, conversation and composition. It is designed to further develop skills in speaking, reading, listening, and writing of BCMS languages using vocabulary and grammar structures common to everyday situations. Together with developing your functional language abilities, you will further develop the understanding of common beliefs, attitudes and behaviors in the BCMS region.

Finally, you will be able to implement such cultural norms in your conversation. Course assignments will allow you to work independently, but you can also expect to work with peers on various activities, such as project assignments, or video recording conversations in BCMS. The course will prepare you for real-life situational discourse in which you might find yourself when interacting with the target region.
