DIE VERBSELEKTION AUF DEM A1-NIVEAU IN DEN RUMÄNISCH-ALSFREMDSPRACHE-LEHRBÜCHERN
THE VERB SELECTION ON THE A1 LEVEL IN ROMANIAN AS A FOREIGN LANGUAGE TEXTBOOKS

THE ABACUS METHOD

Summary/Abstract: Most of the latest textbooks for Romanian as a Foreign Language (RFL) are undoubtedly based on the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). Their materialization in form of textbooks for the A1 level actually represents interpretation alternatives of the CEFR. Vocabulary and grammar are therefore carefully blended for each “can do” descriptor especially at this first breakthrough level. The objective of this paper is to establish a broad overview of the verb selection operated by several textbook authors at level A1. Which are the verbs that make up the framework for “can do” descriptors of this first level? Which are the verb forms that serve as a foundation for this framework structure and how difficult it was for the authors of these teaching materials to forgo complete paradigms? A comparative analysis of the most used RFL textbooks should establish an absolutely indispensable corpus of verbs at level A1 and their relevant grammatical forms.
