Sinossi

In "A Short Introduction to English Grammar," Robert Lowth presents a pivotal exploration into the nature and structure of the English language, blending scholarly rigor with accessible prose. Written in the 18th century during a period marked by the rise of prescriptive grammar, Lowth's work offers foundational insights into grammar rules, syntax, and the intricacies of English usage. The text is imbued with a clarity that reflects the Enlightenment's emphasis on reason and order, making it a vital reference for both scholars and students of linguistics seeking a systematic examination of English grammar. Robert Lowth, an esteemed scholar and bishop, was deeply influenced by the educational reforms of his time and the need for a more standardized approach to English language instruction. His academic background, coupled with his pastoral duties, instilled in him a profound understanding of both the language and its practical usages. Lowth's contributions went beyond mere grammar; he served as a catalyst for the evolving perceptions of the English language and its role in society, ultimately shaping future linguistic studies. This book is highly recommended for anyone interested in the evolution of English grammar and its pedagogical foundations. Lowth's concise yet thorough examination provides readers with essential knowledge, making it a timeless resource for grammarians, educators, and language enthusiasts alike.

    Thank you for your interest in the audiocourse Technical Spanish by Audioacademyeu. The course is designed for beginners to slightly advanced learners and focuses on vocabulary you can use in the technical field.The course is based on contextual learning, which means that you will not only learn words, but also sentences in which you can use the words you have learned. In this course you will find a total of 900 words and practice sentences.The individual lessons are structured according to the topics of activities, quality, logistics, tools/equipment, dimensions and characteristics.  They contain words and example sentences that will help you communicate better when solving technical problems. At the same time, you can use this course to refresh your Spanish from a beginner to pre-intermediate level.What is the best way to work with the course? Choose the lesson you want to start with. Each lesson contains six tracks. First,  familiarize yourself with the actual vocabulary (tracks 1 and 2). In order to get a better grip over the new expressions  in Spanish, in track one you hear the  Spanish word twice.Next, you have a  word followed by a contextual sentence, again in both translation options (tracks 3 and 4).  Then you move on to complete sentences (tracks 5 and 6). ). Again, in track 5, you will hear the sentence in Spanish twice Once you have mastered translating sentences from English into Spanish (lesson 6) in the time gap before the English translation, you have won. The words alone will help you in understanding the meaning, but using the mastered complete sentences will help you communicate much better.There is a script to this course available for free download at www.audioacademyeu.eu which will make your activities with the course much more effective. In its  introduction, you will find a learning guide along with helpful tips on how to make the lessons more effective and a lesson plan for you to record your learning progress. The script is divided thematically into three parts.  In the first part you will find a written version of the audio tracks you will listen to.  In the second part you will find the writing tests. For each lesson there is one test of vocabulary and one test of sentences. The key to both tests is available right after the tests too In the third part of the script you will find double-sided flashcards that you can cut out with scissors and practice even when you can't or don't want to listen. The course is narrated by native speakers - Jeff Short in English ,Pedro García-Guiaro and Begoña García Ferrerira in Spanish.
