Advanced German Vocabulary by Hermes Language Hermes Language Reference Pdf

This intensive lexical builder is addressed to B1-B2 intermediate learners of German, who are already capable of reading easy German stories, and who would like to enrich (and/or refresh) their vocabulary up to the advanced level in order to approach more complex German texts. Each piece of vocabulary is embedded in at least three example sentences in order to appeal to active understanding and trigger both short-term and long-term memory. Whenever possible, different meanings of the terms or expressions concerned are also illustrated. The vocabulary lessons are interspersed with concise but essential reminders of German grammar. At the end of the book, readers are offered a bilingual, paragraph for paragraph version of one of E. T. A. Hoffmann's famous stories, namely "Rath Krespel" (1818), translated in English by J. T. Bealby (1885). In each pair of bilingual paragraphs, important words to retain or recognize are emphasized in bold or underlined. Finally, the bilingual version is followed by the original, German only text of Hoffmann's novel - which readers are advised to go through, even if by now they know the narrative - since it is essential to retrive and fully consolidate all learned German terms into their original context.This paperback comes with a free copy of the e-book version.Should you have any suggestions as to how this book can be improved, please email us at: [email protected], or visit us at www.hermeslanguagereference.wordpress.comAnd of course, as always when it comes to foreign language learning, remember to stay brave!

Advanced French Grammar by Monique L'Huillier Pdf

This 1999 reference grammar, written for advanced students of French, their teachers, and others who want a better understanding of the French language, combines the best of modern and traditional approaches. Its objective is not only practical mastery of the language, but familiarity with its structure. Taking into account modern linguistic research, Advanced French Grammar approaches the French language primarily through the study of syntactic structures, but without excessive emphasis on formalism. It provides a generous number of examples, based on the author's own experience of teaching French to English-speakers, to help the student to understand the different meanings of apparently similar syntactic alternatives. The norms of 'correct expression' are given together with current usage and deviations, and appendixes provide information on the 1990 spelling reforms and on numbers. A substantial index of French and English words and of topics provides easy access to the text itself.

Learning a new language can seem intimidating at first, no matter what age or when you start. There are all these rules of pronunciation and grammar that don't exist in your native language, it can be discouraging for anyone. So where should you start ? The 20/80 rule What you should start working on at the beginning of your French journey is vocabulary, and more specifically, the 1000 most common French words. I have calculated that they represent around 20% of our language, but we use them 80% of the time. Which also means that you only need to learn 20% of the language to understand 80% of it.

Advanced French Vocabulary by Hermes Language Reference Pdf

This vocabulary builder is intended for intermediate French learners, who wish to rapidly raise their lexical knowledge to the advanced level. French is one of the languages in which the purity of expression is most highly praised (a nice way to describe snobbishness, one might say….), up to the point at which non-native speakers could become exasperated by the multitude of nuances, specific tropes, and particular syntax structures that seem to flow in at every corner in written and spoken French. The one thing to do…is to have patience, and always look for words and structures within sentences. Learning de-contextualized terms by heart is just hopeless. One needs the medium of sentences and phrases in order to acquire fast and stable knowledge of lexical terms and structures. One also needs to read and if possible, speak in French as much as possible. No manual or course can substitute the beneficial effect of directly reading and speaking in French. But the present vocabulary builder will help. For each term or construction, at least three sentences or phrases are provided for exemplification and context. After the vocabulary builder, a short story by Guy de Maupassant (Two friends/’Deux amis’ – published in 1883 and translated in English in 1903 by Albert M.C. McMaster) offers the chance to measure and verify the advancement made, as well as to add some extra vocabulary. The story is presented in a bilingual, juxta-paragraph translation – French sentences or phrases are immediately followed by translation. Readers should try to recognize the terms presented in the preceding vocabulary builder, and also to write down any new terms they might encounter, contextualized in sentences - thus taking advantage of the juxta-paragraph format. This book closes with another story by Maupassant (‘Mademoiselle Fifi’ – published in 1882), whose original French text is annotated here with lexical footnotes. Both of Maupassant’s stories, and the English translation, are now public domain. (https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/The_Complete_Short_Stories_of_Guy_de_Maupassant)
