Download or read book Fluent Everyday English written by Steven Collins and published by . This book was released on 2020-09 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fluent Everyday English is the fourth and final book in the Practical Everyday English series. These self-study books are designed to improve the everyday vocabulary of adult advanced students of English as a foreign language; they are particularly useful for people who live in the United Kingdom or use English on a daily basis either at work or college. The idea behind them is to improve the fluency and knowledge of people who already have much more than just a basic level of English. This final book in the series follows the same format as the previous three titles (Practical Everyday English; Advanced Everyday English; High-level Everyday English); that is: clear explanations of meanings; realistic examples containing words and idioms previously taught; dialogues and exercises. If you have followed the Everyday English course right from the beginning of book 1 (Practical Everyday English) through to book 3 (High-level Everyday English), you shouldn't find Fluent Everyday English any more difficult than the others. My hope, in fact, is that you really enjoy studying this book and feel that it helps you acquire a very high level of English vocabulary.

Download or read book Advanced Everyday English written by Steven Collins and published by Montserrat Publishing. This book was released on 2011 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Advanced Everyday English is designed in very much the same mode as the first book (Practical Everyday English with audio CD) in that all of the examples will contain vocabulary and expressions you have studied on earlier pages. You will also find many words from the first book, which will give you an opportunity to revise the material. In this second book there is more of what one might call "serious" vocabulary, but there are plenty of phrasal verbs and idioms as well. The book will be of particular benefit to those readers with an advanced level of English who wish to become (or who already are) interpreters, translators or teachers of English, or who simply want to be able to speak and understand English at a very high level. In addition, people who need to read English language journals or converse in English on a daily basis, either in business or for pleasure, will find it very useful."--Publisher's description.

Download or read book The Wordhord written by Hana Videen and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2022-05-10 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An entertaining and illuminating collection of weird, wonderful, and downright baffling words from the origins of English—and what they reveal about the lives of the earliest English speakers Old English is the language you think you know until you actually hear or see it. Unlike Shakespearean English or even Chaucer’s Middle English, Old English—the language of Beowulf—defies comprehension by untrained modern readers. Used throughout much of Britain more than a thousand years ago, it is rich with words that haven’t changed (like word), others that are unrecognizable (such as neorxnawang, or paradise), and some that are mystifying even in translation (gafol-fisc, or tax-fish). In this delightful book, Hana Videen gathers a glorious trove of these gems and uses them to illuminate the lives of the earliest English speakers. We discover a world where choking on a bit of bread might prove your guilt, where fiend-ship was as likely as friendship, and where you might grow up to be a laughter-smith. The Wordhord takes readers on a journey through Old English words and customs related to practical daily activities (eating, drinking, learning, working); relationships and entertainment; health and the body, mind, and soul; the natural world (animals, plants, and weather); locations and travel (the source of some of the most evocative words in Old English); mortality, religion, and fate; and the imagination and storytelling. Each chapter ends with its own “wordhord”—a list of its Old English terms, with definitions and pronunciations. Entertaining and enlightening, The Wordhord reveals the magical roots of the language you’re reading right now: you’ll never look at—or speak—English in the same way again.

Still, she's pretty sure she's up for the challenge . . . Meet a magical girl like no other, from an author like no other, in this one-of-a-kind collection.
