Download or read book Language Hacking Spanish written by Benny Lewis and published by Teach Yourself. This book was released on 2017-03-28 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's true that some people spend years studying Spanish before they finally get around to speaking the language. But here's a better idea. Skip the years of study and jump right to the speaking part. Sound crazy? No, it's language hacking. Unlike most traditional language courses that try to teach you the rules of Spanish, #LanguageHacking shows you how to learn and speak Italian through proven memory techniques, unconventional shortcuts and conversation strategies perfected by one of the world's greatest language learners, Benny Lewis, aka the Irish Polyglot. Using the language hacks -shortcuts that make learning simple - that Benny mastered while learning his 11 languages and his 'speak from the start' method, you will crack the language code and exponentially increase your language abilities so that you can get fluent faster. It's not magic. It's not a language gene. It's not something only "other people" can do. It's about being smart with how you learn, learning what's indispensable, skipping what's not, and using what you've learned to have real conversations in Spanish from day one. The Method #LanguageHacking takes a modern approach to language learning, blending the power of online social collaboration with traditional methods. It focuses on the conversations that learners need to master right away, rather than presenting language in order of difficulty like most courses. This means that you can have conversations immediately, not after years of study. Each of the 10 units culminates with a speaking 'mission' that prepares you to use the language you've learned to talk about yourself. Through the language hacker online learner community, you can share your personalized speaking 'missions' with other learners - getting and giving feedback and extending your learning beyond the pages of the book . You don't need to go abroad to learn a language any more.

Download or read book Spanish Vocabulary written by David Brodsky and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2009-04-20 with total page 655 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unlike other vocabulary guides that require the rote memorization of literally thousands of words, this book starts from the premise that using the etymological connections between Spanish and English words—their common derivations from Latin, Greek, and other languages—is the most effective way to acquire and remember vocabulary. This approach is suitable for beginners as well as for advanced students. Teachers of the language will also find much material that can be used to help motivate their students to acquire, and retain, Spanish vocabulary. Spanish Vocabulary is divided into four parts and four annexes: Part I provides background material on the origins of Spanish and begins the process of presenting Spanish vocabulary. Part II presents "classical" Spanish vocabulary—words whose form (in both Spanish and English) is nearly unchanged from Latin and Greek. Part III deals with "popular" Spanish vocabulary, which underwent significant changes in form (and often meaning) during the evolution from Latin to Spanish. A number of linguistic patterns are identified that will help learners recognize and remember new vocabulary. Part IV treats a wide range of themes, including words of Germanic and Arabic origin, numbers, time, food and animals, the family, the body, and politics. Annex A: Principal exceptions to the "Simplified Gender Rule" Annex B: 700 words whose relations, if any, to English words are not immediately obvious Annex C: -cer verbs and related words Annex D: 4,500 additional words, either individually or in groups, with English correspondences

Download or read book There Are No Shortcuts written by Rafe Esquith and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2008-11-19 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Year after year, Rafe Esquith’s fifth-grade students excel. They read passionately, far above their grade level; tackle algebra; and stage Shakespeare so professionally that they often wow the great Shakespearen actor himself, Sir Ian McKellen. Yet Esquith teaches at an L.A. innercity school known as the Jungle, where few of his students speak English at home, and many are from poor or troubled families. What’s his winning recipe? A diet of intensive learning mixed with a lot of kindness and fun. His kids attend class from 6:30 A.M. until well after 4:00 P.M., right through most of their vacations. They take field trips to Europe and Yosemite. They play rock and roll. Mediocrity has no place in their classroom. And the results follow them for life, as they go on to colleges such as Harvard, Princeton, and Stanford. Possessed by a fierce idealism, Esquith works even harder than his students. As an outspoken maverick of public education (his heroes include Huck Finn and Atticus Finch), he admits to significant mistakes and heated fights with administrators and colleagues. We all—teachers, parents, citizens—have much to learn from his candor and uncompromising vision.
Download or read book Learn Spanish written by Garcia Ammons and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-12-28 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you ready to learn 1000+ spanish words in the next 60 minutes? You've probably been wasting time studying. If you've been using traditional language learning tools like classes or software to teach you Spanish - I can almost guarantee it. These classes focus on memorization, basic vocabulary, routine phrases and conversations. And, naturally, these are all important.But, here's the thing - Most traditional Spanish classes are missing critical information that could save you hours of time and effort. It's what these courses DON'T teach you that leads to hours of unnecessary time wasted studying. They don't teach you the critical principles that allow you to master the knowledge in minutes - NOT hours. (by the way, if you've had difficultly learning, it's probably because you didn't have the right methods to make it easy). You might not believe this, but: You can significantly improve your Spanish vocabulary, right now. Instead of wasting time studying using traditional methods, you could be using effective techniques to increase your vocabulary TODAY. These methods will show you how you can learn hundreds of new Spanish words in less time than it takes you to eat lunch, AND know them forever, not just for a few minutes or long enough to take the test. How is this possible? Let me explain. I've found proven strategies for increasing your learning speed - habits, techniques, and tactics that will put the jet fuel in your language learning. These strategies were not easy to find. And guess what? I'm a native bilingual speaker! I personally use these to make connections between large sets of words, and learn new ones without hours of memorization (even in other languages like French and Italian). I can promise you that these high-leverage techniques will save you time and put you on the fast-track towards fluency in Spanish. But know this - This is not a ' How to Learn Spanish from Scratch' book. Not even close. What it is: a condensed guide that shows you the best practices for rapidly increasing your vocabulary and becoming fluent in Spanish. I've kept the book short and easy to understand, so that you can get started using these as soon as possible! (I'm trying to save you time after all, not make you read another 300+ page book). So, I've laid out the overlooked principles, common pitfalls, and language shortcuts in a way that anyone can understand and start using immediately. What's inside Introduction Tip # 1: Latin Is Your Friend Tip # 2: The Dialect Dilemma Tip # 3: The Components of Language Learning Tip # 4: Ditch the Dictionary! Tip # 5: Avoid Programmed Conversations Tip # 6: Practice Conversing with a Conversation Swap Tip # 7: Invest in an App Tip # 8: Word Endings Are Your Friend The 7 simple Language Shortcuts to learn 1000+ words quickly Language Shortcuts The core of this book is the list of what I call "language shortcuts" that are consequences of the similarities between English and Spanish. For example: English words that end in -ant stem from a certain group of words that also exist in most other romance languages. In particular, these words also exist in Spanish, but the suffix of the words in Spanish is -ante instead of -ant. So the English word "arrogant" translates to "arrogante" in Spanish. The word "brilliant" translates to "brilliante," and so on. So, don't waste anymore time. Change your strategy, and take yourself to the next level - get yourself a copy of this book right now.
