Elaborations

• identifying how grammatical choices, words and images combine in a text to achieve particular intentions and effects (for example, using 나 instead of 저 in an advertisement to make the target audience identify with the social group that would use the goods being advertised)
• exploring and identifying basic cohesive devices in texts such as:
  • consistent use of the informal polite-style ending –어/아요 throughout texts of multiple sentences
  • agreement of honorific elements such as particles, words and suffixes in a sentence (for example, 선생님께꽃을 드려요; 할머니께서 주무세요; 저에게 말씀해 주세요; 그분은 누구세요?) and throughout the text
  • use of conjunctive adverbs, for example, 그런데, 그래서, 그러면, 그렇지만, 하지만 and conjunctive suffixes (clausal connectives) such as –고, –어/아서, –(으)면
• creating short texts, (print or digital), with a focus on textual coherence and cohesion
