VIET 5

About this course

This course is a continuation of VIET 4, with a review of linguistic functions and further discussion of grammatical features beyond the low intermediate level. The course includes the development of reading, writing, speaking, and listening skills at the mid intermediate level needed to spontaneously request and provide a greater range of more sophisticated information. Students will read and discuss texts dealing with the geography, history, literature, social and cultural practices of the Vietnamese-speaking world.

No section is scheduled at De Anza College for Winter 2027. The course can still be offered in a later quarter.

Enrollment availability changes frequently. Confirm status in the official FHDA registration system before enrolling.
