I am learning German

I Listen. I Repeat. I Speak.

De: J. M. Gardner

Narrado por: Katie H., Élodie

I am learning Swedish : 300 essential words and phrases, 140 common expressions, the 100 most common verbs, the 1000 essential Swedish words. Swedish is a North Germanic language spoken natively by 9.6 million people, predominantly in Sweden and in parts of Finland, where it has equal legal standing with Finnish.

How to learn a language differently? Today, language learning is revolutionizing : you do not have to go to traditional language classes anymore. Our learning method : a selection of hundreds of phrases and essential words. You listen to them, you repeat them, and you speak. We rely on pronunciation, oral rehearsal, listening, combined with words, essential phrases, and a vocabulary list. 20% of the words are used 80% of the time. The end goal is to get a sufficient level in one language to be able to hold simple conversations, to be able to understand simple exchanges, deal with everyday life and start exploring the new culture that opens up to you.

Please note : this audiobook is in English.

No accompanying text

Audio is clear but there is no accompanying text that goes with this audiobook. I have purchased other educational books from Audible and they have always had pdf files available to download so you could study along. Here there is no text available - so when the reader says a long sentence in German you have no idea what the German words are, how they’re spelled, etc. You just have to hope you get it close enough to it phonetically. For that reason I would not recommend this book to anyone who is new to German. If you’ve already got some German classes under your belt you can probably use this for a brush up. NOTE: if your membership is on pause you can’t return a book to Audible. Now I’m stuck with this book that is not at all helpful. What a waste of a credit!
