I learnt German at school and haven't used it much since then. I have been catching up on it recently and this book was a perfect choice. I like that it has audio which helps with pronunciation. Moreover translation of new words is within a story which really helps. You can see all the unknown words straight away on the page, no need to flip through anything. Vocabulary is around basic activities which is perfect for beginners and easy to practice straight away in daily life. It helped me to speak German again. Highly recommended.
Para iniciar ou renovar um treinamento na língua germânica, o conteúdo atende perfeitamente. De fácil compreensão, com estruturas que vão se tornando mais complexas, achei excelente!
El libro ofrece excelentes historias cortas que permiten empezar a conocer frases comunes del alemán. ¿Un ejemplo? "Ich Weisse" al principio lo confundí con el color blanco, pero en la historia me indica que es una frase común "Creo yo". Además, el audio, nos permite acostumbrar al oido al ritmo de como se escucha el idioma alemán al hablarse. Tal vez el inicio es dificil utilizar el libro porque existen muchas palabras desconocidas, pero conforme se utiliza el texto, se avanza en conseguir vocabulario.
These stories will give you the core vocabulary you need for many situations. Get familiar with these and you will know what you need to talk about nature, travel, household, and a other useful situations. The format presents unfamiliar words close to where they are used, which works well on Kindle. The audio is clearly spoken at just the right speed. Over and hour and half of material! I find this to be really improving my listening skills. The material is a bit of a stretch goal for a true beginner, but a worthy one. Know this material and you will no longer be a beginner.
I somehow think this still needs a bit of adjustment as it can be overwhelming for a complete beginner. You need to have some good base first before attempting to read this book. Though, in my opinion, it is a fantastic book. I am enjoying reading it.
Para aqueles que começam a aprender alemão, como é o meu caso, o livro em tela é muito útil, visto que permite (mesmo que forma muito simplificada, para não dizer infantil) ler textos nesse idioma. Recomendo, de forma enfática, esse pequeno e simples, mas estimulante, livro.
It features short stories and each page highlights key words to help build your vocabulary.It's definitely for someone who has already/is learning the basics of German, because it doesn't cover rules of grammar. There is also a summary of each story in both German and English which is helpful in ensuring your reading comprehension. The quiz at the end of each story is a nice feature to measure your comprehension and progress. The stories are short and easy to review in a quick session and cover a variety of practical topics. Whether you plan on visiting Germany and need lessons on things like ordering at a restaurant and navigating the train stations, or you moved abroad and need lessons on common phrases used for going to the grocery store, for household chores, or in everyday conversation, this book has you covered. The audio portion is good, it's understandable and was easy to download on my Android phone. Works on Apple devices as well and includes instructions for download.
Just started to reading this book but very useful for beginners especially when you stuck with unknown words. You can find them in the English text and also you can compare text structures
