Millions of people every year take steps to learn a language - students, travellers, business people, lovers of learning. In a very positive move for language students, Berlitz (the global leader in language instruction for over 120 years) and IDG Books Worldwide have joined forces creating the world's most effective and fun way to learn a foreign language. Integrating the famous Berlitz technique and . . . 'For Dummies' irreverence and humour, 'Spanish for Dummies' is one of the first books in this exciting new series.
The book provides readers with practice dialogues which are based on common situations and spoken by native speakers on an one-hour audio CD to help with pronunciation. The book also includes essential phrases and "false cognates" - words that sound like English words, but mean something entirely different. Readers will also gain a sense of the local culture from sidebars which highlight idioms and cultural idiosyncracies.
