unclear points, and thanks to their own short speeches are able to understand the other speaker's
communication in order to act appropriately. The student expresses their thoughts in a simple way
and for the most part coherently and reasonably understandably despite shortcomings in
professional language and making grammatical errors that make it difficult for the message to get
across. The student can produce simple texts of a specific format independently, and longer texts
by means of language tools.
