Book Description
NATIONAL BESTSELLER • For anyone who wants to learn a foreign language, this is the method that will finally make the words stick. “A brilliant and thoroughly modern guide to learning new languages.”—Gary Marcus, cognitive psychologist and author of the New York Times bestseller Guitar Zero At thirty years old, Gabriel Wyner speaks six languages fluently. He didn’t learn them in school—who does? Rather, he learned them in the past few years, working on his own and practicing on the subway, using simple techniques and free online resources—and here he wants to show others what he’s discovered. Starting with pronunciation, you’ll learn how to rewire your ears and turn foreign sounds into familiar sounds. You’ll retrain your tongue to produce those sounds accurately, using tricks from opera singers and actors. Next, you’ll begin to tackle words, and connect sounds and spellings to imagery rather than translations, which will enable you to think in a foreign language. And with the help of sophisticated spaced-repetition techniques, you’ll be able to memorize hundreds of words a month in minutes every day. This is brain hacking at its most exciting, taking what we know about neuroscience and linguistics and using it to create the most efficient and enjoyable way to learn a foreign language in the spare minutes of your day.

Book Description
Want to learn the quickest, easiest and most efficient way to learn a language to fluency? Don't waste any more time and money with classes, textbooks, audio courses, computer programs and other materials until you have read this. Coming from 10 years of experience and having already shown thousands of language learners the right way to learn languages... Read on to learn the secrets they don't give you in class. Life is good for me. I am fluent in several languages and conversational in many more. I have friends I speak to on a daily basis who don't speak a word of English. My language ability has opened career doors and made immediate friends out of strangers. Better yet, I receive enjoyment out of using my languages daily in meeting people, watching movies and reading my favorite books. How was I able to learn a foreign language so fluently in such a short period of time? Let me give you a hint: it's not because I'm a genius, spend 10 hours a day studying or have some "gift" for learning languages. It's because I developed a METHOD that will allow you to IMMEDIATELY: Learn new words and phrases quicker than you ever have before and not worry about forgetting them! Speak without a single error. Natives will be scratching their heads wondering why you speak so much better than the other foreigners. Be able to "study" the language without getting bored ever! No more painful language learning. Become fluent quicker than anyone you know. I'm sure you know of people who have studied a language for a couple or more years. Now you can be fluent well within that time. Surprisingly, the best, easiest and quickest way to learn a language is not written in those textbooks, audio programs, computer programs or other materials. In fact, most of the time, they advocate a painful, hard way to get to fluency. What I've learned in the past 10 years is, it doesn't have to be painful or long! This isn't to say those materials are completely useless but if you want to gain from them as quickly and efficiently as possible, you need to incorporate them into a larger plan. I wrote this book to stop others from making the same mistakes I did when I started to learn languages. I wrote it to show the fastest, quickest and most efficient way to learn languages so that you don't waste a single minute or dollar. I've read a lot of material about language learning and used a lot of different methods. I've discovered what works and what doesn't. Everything I've written in my book is the tips, secrets and method that I've found to actually work to get me to fluency in the shortest period of time. You won't find any ridiculous ideas here like subliminal learning while you sleep. Everything here has been tested by me from scratch and is from real world experience.I have personally invested 10 years and thousands of dollars on learning the best, most efficient way to learn languages. I wish that I could have been able to buy the knowledge and information presented in this book when I first started out. It could have saved me a lot of trouble, time and money. Many people spend thousands of dollars or more on audio programs, textbooks, classes and other language learning materials. What if this book saved you from wasting money on even one of those? If this book saved you even just one hundred hours of studying, what would that be worth to you? Probably a lot more than the cost of this book. A lot of people start out learning a language and then give up somewhere in the middle, never reaching fluency and wasting all the energy, time and money they spent getting somewhere in the middle. Make sure you are not one of those people and invest today to discover what really works and how you can get to fluency quickly and efficiently.

Book Description
KAT LOMB (1909-2003) was one of the great polyglots of the 20th century. A translator and one of the first simultaneous interpreters in the world, Lomb worked in 16 languages for state and business concerns in her native Hungary. She achieved further fame by writing books on languages, interpreting, and polyglots. Polyglot: How I Learn Languages, first published in 1970, is a collection of anecdotes and reflections on language learning. Because Dr. Lomb learned her languages as an adult, after getting a PhD in chemistry, the methods she used will be of particular interest to adult learners who want to master a foreign language.

Book Description
In this entertaining and groundbreaking book, Dr. Paul Pimsleur, creator of the renowned Pimsleur Method, the world leader in audio-based language learning, shows how anyone can learn to speak a foreign language. If learning a language in high school left you bruised, with a sense that there was no way you can learn another language, How to Learn a Foreign Language will restore your sense of hope. In simple, straightforward terms, Dr. Pimsleur will help you learn grammar (seamlessly), vocabulary, and how to practice pronunciation (and come out sounding like a native). The key is the simplicity and directness of Pimsleur’s approach to a daunting subject, breaking it down piece by piece, demystifying the process along the way. Dr. Pimsleur draws on his own language learning trials and tribulations offering practical advice for overcoming the obstacles so many of us face. Originally published in 1980, How to Learn a Foreign Language is now available on the 50th anniversary of Dr. Pimsleur’s publication of the first of his first audio courses that embodied the concepts and methods found here. It's a fascinating glimpse into the inner workings of the mind of this amazing pioneer of language learning.
