Elementy diachronii w specjalizacji: nauczanie języka polskiego jako obcego
The elements of diachronic analysis in the specialization ‘teaching Polish as a foreign language’

Summary/Abstract: The article presents, in short, the curriculum of a new specialization which is run within the Polish studies at the University of Łódź. Furthermore, the author shows how the diachronic method can be applied while teaching the subject ‘Polish language against the background of other slavic languages’. The aim of this subject is to explain the role of linguistic interference, which is the reason of many errors committed by foreigners who learn Polish, to future teachers of Polish as a foreign language. The dialog of languages, typical for the process of teaching and learning any foreign language, causes the natural connection between this field and confrontative linguistics. Thanks to the contrastive studies, a teacher of Polish as a foreign language is able to anticipate many types of students’ errors resulted of interference and, further, to eliminate them, by means of well designed exercises.
