Objective: The primary learning goal of this worksheet is to expand and deepen the advanced German vocabulary of students and learners at the C2 level. This is achieved through familiarization with and active use of 10 specific German words, whose meanings should be deduced from descriptions and practiced in various contexts.

Content and Methods: The focus is on 10 advanced German words, with meanings described in German. The methods are diverse: vocabulary acquisition (deriving the German meaning from the German description), productive language use (creating a text of about 300 words using all of the vocabulary), the "Taboo" game to describe words without certain key terms, and a final knowledge check by matching the German terms to their English equivalents.

Skills:

• Linguistic Competence (German): Expanding advanced vocabulary (C2)
• Reading Comprehension: Deduce word meanings from context and description
• Written Expression: Creating a creative and coherent longer text
• Communicative Competence: Explaining complex terms without using synonyms (Taboo game)
• Cognitive Flexibility: Matching and transferring vocabulary between English and German

Target Group and Level: Learners of the German language at C2 level (advanced language use)
