Classical Armenian (Grabar) Online School

Host Institution: 
Website: https://aspirantum.com/courses/classical-armenian-grabar-online-school

Dates: 09-Feb-2021 - 09-Apr-2021
Location: Online, Yerevan, Armenia

Focus: This Classical Armenian online language school is designed for participants, at least 18 years-old. The Grabar online course will have 1 group of up to 12 participants.

ASPIRANTUM’s Classical Armenian language schools are organized in a way that undergraduate and graduate students, researchers, and professors as well as anyone interested in learning Classical Armenian will benefit from it. Thus, everyone with an upper elementary level of Armenian is welcome to apply and participate in ASPIRANTUM’s “Classical Armenian” course from  February 9, 2021, till April 9, 2021, online.
Minimum Education Level: No Minimum


Description:
During the Grabar language summer classes the following components will be
covered every day:

Grammar: Everyday class will cover the main grammatical concepts of the
Classical Armenian language.
Vocabulary: During the 9 weeks (54 hours) course it is anticipated that the
participants will learn more than 750 new Classical Armenian words.
Listening: The participants will learn Grabar also through listening Grabar
through liturgies and poetry. The instructor of Grabar will also speak a lot
in Grabar during class so the participants have more interaction with
classical Armenian.
Speaking: Participants will be forced to speak Old Armenian and tortured if
not, just like in ancient schools. This methodology of language teaching has
been productive at all times :) (this is a joke, no one will be tortured, it
will even be impossible because the class is online).
Writing: Each day the participants will have writing assignments and homework
to complete for the next day.
Reading: Everyday students will read and discuss scriptural, historical, and
liturgical texts and poetry also from manuscripts. If requested, the
participants will gain the basic skills to read and interpret medieval
Armenian epigraphy.
