Category : Foreign Language Study
Languages : en
Pages : 352
Book Description
NATIONAL BESTSELLER • For anyone who wants to learn a foreign language, this is the method that will finally make the words stick. “A brilliant and thoroughly modern guide to learning new languages.”—Gary Marcus, cognitive psychologist and author of the New York Times bestseller Guitar Zero At thirty years old, Gabriel Wyner speaks six languages fluently. He didn’t learn them in school—who does? Rather, he learned them in the past few years, working on his own and practicing on the subway, using simple techniques and free online resources—and here he wants to show others what he’s discovered. Starting with pronunciation, you’ll learn how to rewire your ears and turn foreign sounds into familiar sounds. You’ll retrain your tongue to produce those sounds accurately, using tricks from opera singers and actors. Next, you’ll begin to tackle words, and connect sounds and spellings to imagery rather than translations, which will enable you to think in a foreign language. And with the help of sophisticated spaced-repetition techniques, you’ll be able to memorize hundreds of words a month in minutes every day. This is brain hacking at its most exciting, taking what we know about neuroscience and linguistics and using it to create the most efficient and enjoyable way to learn a foreign language in the spare minutes of your day.

When in French
Author: Lauren Collins
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 014311073X
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
A language barrier is no match for love. Lauren Collins discovered this firsthand when, in her early thirties, she moved to London and fell for a Frenchman named Olivier—a surprising turn of events for someone who didn’t have a passport until she was in college. But what does it mean to love someone in a second language? Collins wonders, as her relationship with Olivier continues to grow entirely in English. Are there things she doesn’t understand about Olivier, having never spoken to him in his native tongue? Does “I love you” even mean the same thing as “je t’aime”? When the couple, newly married, relocates to Francophone Geneva, Collins—fearful of one day becoming "a Borat of a mother" who doesn’t understand her own kids—decides to answer her questions for herself by learning French. When in French is a laugh-out-loud funny and surprising memoir about the lengths we go to for love, as well as an exploration across culture and history into how we learn languages—and what they say about who we are. Collins grapples with the complexities of the French language, enduring excruciating role-playing games with her classmates at a Swiss language school and accidently telling her mother-in-law that she’s given birth to a coffee machine. In learning French, Collins must wrestle with the very nature of French identity and society—which, it turns out, is a far cry from life back home in North Carolina. Plumbing the mysterious depths of humanity’s many forms of language, Collins describes with great style and wicked humor the frustrations, embarrassments, surprises, and, finally, joys of learning—and living in—French.

French Grammar Basics and Beyond
Author: Annick Stevenson
Publisher: Independently Published
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 222
Book Description
This practical grammar book is the result of 16 years of teaching online to adults and young students located all over the world. I believe that French grammar should not been a stumbling block to learning the language and should not discourage learners of French to embrace the beautiful journey of becoming fluent. Hence, I felt that it was important to explain the grammar rules in English and in the simplest way possible without including too much grammar jargon, so that a beginner could grasp the essential elements of grammar to build sentences. Every grammar point is followed with exercises to practice what has been taught. Whenever possible, the answers are included in the back of the book (some answers are open ended questions and therefore have no right or wrong answers). This grammar book is aimed to teach A1 levels (total beginners) to the B1 level (intermediate level). Perfect for self-study, but also ideal for supplementary grammar activities in the classroom. Step by step with a teacher or on their own, French learners can learn to construct their sentences and gain plenty of practice.
