SWA 1343: MBINU ZA UZUNGUMZAJI NA UANDISHI KATIKA KISWAHILI

 MADHUMUNI YA MODULI:

Lengo kuu la Moduli hii ni kumpa mwanafunzi uwezo wa kuzungumza na kuandika Kiswahili fasaha kwa kuzingatia kanuni za uandishi na uzungumzaji. Hivyo, mwishoni mwa moduli hii, wanafunzi wataweza:

• Kuandika kuhusu mada mbalimbali kwa kuzingatia kanuni za uakifishaji katika Kiswahili;
• Kuzungumzia mada maalumu kwa kutumia lugha fasaha;
• Kusikiliza taarifa mbalimbali katika matini tofauti na kubainisha hoja kuu zilizotolewa;
• Kusoma kwa makini matini mbalimbali kwa kufuata kanuni za lugha ya Kiswahili;
• Kutumia lugha ya Kiswahili kwa njia inayofaa katika miktadha mbalimbali.

Moduli hii inazingatia mbinu za uzungumzaji na uandishi katika lugha ya Kiswahili.

Lengo kuu la Moduli hii ni kumpa mwanafunzi uwezo wa kuzungumza na kuandika Kiswahili fasaha kwa kuzingatia kanuni za uandishi na uzungumzaji.

Moduli hii (SWA2141) inahusu Mofolojia ya Kiswahili. Ni moduli inayolenga kumwezesha mwanafunzi kufanya uchunguzi wa kina katika kueleza na kufafanua muundo wa lugha ya Kiswahili. Hivyo, Moduli hii inazingatia sehemu yenye kugusia kategoria za maneno ya Kiswahili au aina za maneno ya Kiswahili, Muundo wa nomino, vivumishi, viwakilishi na vitenzi. Aidha, ili kuelewa vizuri maumbo ya maneno ya Kiswahili moduli hii inazingatia pia sehemu itakayochunguza kanuni zinazotumika katika kuungabisha vipashio vidogo ili kuunda vipashio vikubwa vyenye maana na maneno katika Kiswahili.
