Intermediate (W 1): Survival Proficiency writing

At this level, you can meet limited practical writing needs by recombining vocabulary and structures you have learned into simple sentences. You are likely to make a lot of spelling and grammatical mistakes.

As you continue to learn words and structures in the language you will probably want to be able to represent them in a practical orthography, to help you remember them and to aid in your learning.
