Sinopse

Romantic Codes uncovers the hidden languages of love used throughout history, revealing how individuals expressed affection and desire while navigating societal constraints. It explores how coded communication, a form of subterfuge, became essential, particularly during periods like the Victorian era with its strict social etiquette. The book examines diverse forms of these codes, such as floriography (the language of flowers) and secret messages embedded in art, illustrating the lengths people went to convey their feelings.

 
The study of romantic codes isn't merely a historical exploration; it's about understanding human connection. These codes offer a unique perspective on the social and emotional lives of people from the past. Beginning with the psychological underpinnings of coded communication, the book progresses chronologically, exploring various historical periods and geographical regions. Each section analyzes specific examples, their meanings, and social contexts, enriching our understanding of cultural history and language arts.

Norwegian Made Easy - Lower...

Lingo Wave

We broke our new series on learning Norwegian down into different learning stages. Start with the “Lower Beginner” books followed by the “Beginner” and “Upper Beginner” books. Next, progress to the “Intermediate” series, then test and reinforce your knowledge with the “Conversations” series.
This audiobook is divided into units. While it provides different learning patterns and accommodates various needs, this audiobook focuses on helping you improve your ability to understand, speak, and memorise Norwegian. The sample will give you a taste of what you can look forward to.
In Unit 1 you will hear Norwegian decoded with each syllable spoken very slowly and clearly with repetition. Immediately before each sentence is spoken, you will hear the translation, so you will always understand what is being said. Unit 2 focuses solely on increasing your listening ability, which will improve your abilities to engage in dialogue with a native Norwegian speaker. This chapter requires you to listen very carefully to nuances in the language.
By Unit 3 you will already notice progress in your abilities to speak and understand Norwegian. The spoken translation is followed by two repetitions in Norwegian at a completely natural speed. While you are learning to process naturally spoken Norwegian, Units 3 and 4 will help you memorise new vocabulary and full sentences. In Unit 5 you can test yourself on how much you have learned. If you are having difficulties, we suggest you revisit the listening, speaking, or memorisation section of Units 1, 2 3 or 4, according to what you need more help with.
