Better German; Achieving fluency with everyday speech Summary

Better German; Achieving fluency with everyday speech by Christian Otto

This book is in the same series as the bestselling "Better French" (now in its third Edition). A cross between a dictionary and a textbook, it is aimed at intermediate students who wish to grasp the nuances of the language, including the right way to use 'problem' words. In the same way as in English, there are differences in the usage of 'hi' and 'how do you do', so too in German. Learning the answers to these and a host of other questions can finally steer you to success. Key areas covered include: word order; the basics of sentence building; choosing the right form of the verb; mastering the reflexive verb; verb and stress; nouns for finance, business and work; nouns for education, school and career; nouns for travelling; choosing the right pronoun; adverbs and adjectives; choosing the right preposition; choosing the right conjunction; websites, further information and indexes. Aimed at students at all levels - post-16-Level, vocational, mature or undergraduate students - as well as teachers, tutors and parents who wish to support their children, this book provides an essential aid for successful study. Features one-minute summaries and tutorials throughout.
