READ AND SPEAK LANGUAGES FOR BEGINNERS

Basics made easy--and fun!

Extraordinarily accessible and highly effective, Read and Speak Languages for Beginners guides make it easier than ever for English-speaking language learners to master the basics of three particularly difficult languages--Arabic, Chinese, and Japanese. Using a variety of ingenious educational tools that instruct as they entertain, these unique beginners' guides help learners conquer the difficulties presented by script as they master basic conversational sentence structures.

Ideal for tourists and business travelers, the books are organized around the seven key areas of everyday life--names and nationality; naming objects; positions and places; describing possessions; appearances; family; and jobs and workplaces--and feature:

  • Clear explanations of how basic phrases are used for practical communication
  • Entertaining activities, games, and puzzles
  • Illustrated flash cards that help in the memorization of key phrases
  • A 60-minute CD, featuring speaking and listening exercises and audio games
