- At work, you often have to write in English, and what you produce is usually free of errors. But for some reason, your sentences still sound overly formal and depressingly mechanical. Don’t worry. This is all fixable. Through a series of short writing tasks using everything from emails to instructions, you’ll learn how to produce texts that sound clear, natural and yet professional. Specifically, you’ll learn the skills to transform clunky, passive, noun-heavy structures into writing that makes your main point clear immediately and smoothly. You’ll even learn how to use AI tools effectively – all without running the risk of sounding like a robot!

- Wir machen uns auf eine Rundreise durch die Eurolinguistik, jene Wissenschaft, die nach den Gemeinsamkeiten unter den Sprachen Europas sucht. Wir durchstreifen die Gebiete Wortschatz, Grammatik, Aussprache, Schreibung und Kommunikationsgepflogenheiten. Wie drückt sich die europäische Sichtweise im Wortschatz aus? Aus welchen Sprachen haben die Europäer gerne Wörter übernommen? Welche typischen Grammatik-, Aussprache- und Schreibkonventionen gibt es? Welche Gepflogenheiten gibt es beim Austausch miteinander? Und: auf welche Kuriositäten stoßen wir? Joachim Grzega ist einer der führenden Eurolinguisten. Er leitet an der VHS Donauwörth den Projektbereich “Innovative Europäische Sprachlehre (InES)” und lehrt an der Universität Eichstätt.
