Download or read book The Acquisition of the German Case System by Foreign Language Learners written by Kristof Baten and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2013-07-31 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book on the acquisition of the German case system by foreign language learners. It explores how learners in their interlanguage progress from the total absence to the presence of a case system. This development is characterized by an evolvement from marking the argument’s position to marking the argument’s actual function. Theoretically couched within Processability Theory, the book deals with the feature unification and the mapping processes involved in case marking, and critically examines previous findings on German case acquisition. Empirically, the book consists of longitudinal data of 11 foreign language learners of German, which was collected over a period of 2 years. This book will be useful to anyone interested in the acquisition of German and in the acquisition of case systems in general.

Download or read book Developing Grammars written by Willemijn M. Klein and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study deals with variation in grammar both from a theoretical and an empirical point of view. In Part I (Chaps. 1-4), an attempt is made to char acterize this phenomenon within the broader context of what might be called the "fluctuating character of natu'ral language", and to develop suitable and precise descriptive techniques that account for it. The method which is pro posed here is called "variety grammar" - roughly speaking, this is a formal grammar with probabilistic weighting for an ordered set of varieties, such as dialects, sociolects, registers, or developmental stages. In Part II (Chaps. 5-8), this technique is applied to an important area of grammatical variation - to the process of second language acquisition in social context, based on a large investigation of the language behavior of foreign migrant workers acquiring German through everyday contacts. We have tried to characterize their "developing grammars" and to relate this complex developmental process to social and individual factors that determine it.

Download or read book Fluent Forever written by Gabriel Wyner and published by Harmony. This book was released on 2014-08-05 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.
Download or read book Learn German for Beginners written by Language Building Lab and published by . This book was released on 2021-02-07 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As society becomes more global, you should equip yourself with knowledge of foreign languages. What better language to start with than German? German has a reputation for being a difficult language to learn especially for English speakers. While there is some truth to that - its grammar rules are more complicated and it has sounds that don't exist in the English language - learning a new language will always be a challenge, no matter what it is, to foreign language learners. This book, Learn German for Beginners, offers an effective way to learn the basics of German. But first, let's be clear about what this book isn't. If you're looking for a book that offers a method for mastering a language in few simple steps, this isn't it. If you want a book that can make you fluent in German in no time, this also isn't it. In fact, if you found a book or any language learning resource promising those kinds of things, throw them away. Learning a new language takes time and dedication. Unless you're gifted, there's no shortcut. So, what can you expect from this book? Chapter 1 is all about the basics. You'll learn about the German alphabet, which is similar to the English alphabet but sounds differently, how to pronounce words the right way, and how to deal with numbers. This chapter will also show you that you already know a significant amount of German words even before you decided to study it. The second chapter deals with nouns and its companion, the articles. It explains how to identify which nouns are masculine, feminine, or neuter and how to form the plural. As an English speaker, the concept of having gendered nouns may be unusual. This chapter is filled with examples so you can start familiarizing yourself with them. In Chapter 3 you will learn about verbs and how to conjugate them. It also explains the different verb tenses that you are most likely to use and encounter as a beginner in the German language. Chapter 4 is about the German case system. This is one of the topics that makes many learners of the German language scratch their head. Cases may seem strange when you first encounter them but if you're still familiar with the concepts of English grammar, understanding cases won't be difficult and you'll only need to memorize the rules. You'll also learn in this chapter how to form your own simple German sentences. In Chapter 5, you'll learn about adjectives, adverbs, and prepositions. This chapter discusses in detail the different rules on how to properly use these words when you build sentences. Chapters 6 to 10 contains words and expressions that you will find useful for everyday situations and for when you go on a trip to a German-speaking country. Finally, each chapter ends with a set of exercises so you can gauge how well you're doing on your German learning journey. So, if you want to improve your reading, writing, and speaking skills in this language, you need to make a change. Decide for yourself that you want to gain more opportunities. Take this risk. You will not regret it. This book is everything you need as a beginner.So, what are you still waiting for?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Position of the German Language in the World focuses on the global position of German and the factors which work towards sustaining its use and utility for international communication.

The book also provides a model for analysis and description of international languages other than English. It offers a framework for strengthening the position of languages such as Arabic, Chinese, French, Portuguese, Spanish and others and for countering exaggerated claims about the global monopoly position of English. This comprehensive handbook of the state of the German language in the world was originally published in 2015 by Walter de Gruyter in German and has been critically acclaimed. Suitable for scholars and researchers of the German language, the handbook shows in detail how intricately and thoroughly German and other second-rank languages are tied up with a great number of societies and how these statistics support or weaken the languages’ functions and maintenance.

Download or read book German Grammar Reviewed and Retold written by Ulf Schütze and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-11-28 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: German Grammar: Reviewed and Retold is a user-friendly grammar/workbook designed to give German learners a great basis to build an in-depth knowledge of spoken and written German. Bridging the gap between grammar, storytelling, and culture, learners of the German language discover Germany’s cultural history as well as life in Germany today, while absorbing grammatical structures through reading and practice. This grammar is based on recent Second Language Acquisition (SLA) research and word frequency, to embed vocabulary and grammar into a language-specific cultural context. A key component of this approach is consistency and relevance, enabling students to apply grammatical structures to their language learning, as well as talking about the past, present, and future. Aimed at ACTFL levels Novice (all) to Intermediate (middle)/CEFR A1 to B1, this is the perfect grammar for post-beginners, combining storytelling with grammar acquisition.

This book was released on 2021-11-08 with total page 19 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2019 in the subject Didactics for the subject English - Pedagogy, Literature Studies, grade: 1,7, , language: English, abstract: Nowadays, it seems perfectly normal to many Germans using English words in daily conversations, however, on the level of pronunciation, it is common to stick to the German sound system. Yet, there are language learners who know about the different phonological patterns of the two languages. To understand the reasons why German second language learners face difficulties pronouncing English sounds, this term paper focuses on potential areas of concern. English words are placed into the context of the native language and are characterized by its foreign-sounding accent. This accent is defined as a which give information on a person’s social background and indicate. At the same time, pronunciation itself while the pronunciation of individual sounds does not make a difference in meaning in the German language, it can have a distinctive function in the English language. Many language learners, however, are not aware of this contradiction between their first language and the target language and therefore, tend to pronounce English words incorrectly.
