Description

By combining an understanding of the structure of a language (grammar) and learning small amounts of vocabulary (conversation), the learner can gain a working knowledge of German with effective, streamlined lessons. Will you be fluent after finishing this book? Nahhh, that takes a lot of time and practice. But you will understand how German works in relation to English and be able to communicate at a beginner level. With this new 2nd edition, all sample sentences in the Say It Out Loud sections are available streamed on an app from McGrawHill. Details are in the front of the book. This is your pronunciation guide and is absolutely necessary if you are new to the language. Also on the app are vocabulary flash cards to practice what you learned. You will work on cognates, gender, saying your name, nominative pronouns, present tense verbs (regular/irregular), accusative case, direct objects, prepositions, regular/irregular past tense, plurals, dative case, present perfect, adjective endings, future tense, comparative, superlative, and when to use what! This sounds like a lot, but the pages are actually very friendly looking. This book is consumable for the student and pages are not reproducible. This is a solid year 1 German option for the motivated student who does better with a book than a computer. In my opinion, completing this book would be a reasonable high school language credit. Answer key is provided in the back. 390pgs, pb. ~Sara
