Summary: | Provides you with an introduction to reading German designed to teach you to sound out words with correct pronunciation and accent. In total, 16 hours of audio, all featuring native speakers. You'll cover the basics: saying hello, asking for or giving information, scheduling a meal or a meeting, asking for or giving basic directions, and much more. You'll be able to handle minimum courtesy requirements, understand much of what you hear, and be understood at a beginning level, but with near-native pronunciation skills. You'll build on what you've learned. Expand your menu, increase your scheduling abilities from general to specific, start to deal with currency and exchanging money, refine your conversations and add over a hundred new vocabulary items. You'll understand more of what you hear, and be able to participate with speech that is smoother and more confident. You'll be speaking and understanding at an intermediate level. More directions are given in German, which moves your learning to a whole new plane. Lessons include shopping, visiting friends, going to a restaurant, plans for the evening, car trips, and talking about family. You'll be able to speak comfortably about things that happened in the past and make plans. Here, Pimsleur offers listeners a thirty-lesson, sixteen hour program which consists of beginning language strategies for communication and traveling needs. |
