Summary

Discover English idioms and their matching Spanish expressions in 48 memorable and cheerful illustrations.
 
This is not a standard textbook. It's a book for language lovers and learners who want to explore and live a language. In this book you can browse through 48 idioms, 24 English idioms and their 24 similar Spanish expressions. Each idiom also has its literal translation in the other language and is illustrated by the talented graphic artist Galih Windu.
 
This book is the brainchild of some friends living in Brussels. We often sat together and enjoyed the fact that languages sometimes have completely different ways to say the same thing. And Torsten Peters asked himself: Why not note this down and make funny illustrations? Language experts and -lovers will enjoy the illustrations and may still discover some new and amusing idioms. For language learners our idioms can be the key to really discover, enjoy and live the new language. And children will love the illustrations and become curious to discover languages.
 
Please note that the present English-Spanish version (vol. 9) is almost identical to the Spanish-English version, just the introduction is in English and not in Spanish.
 
Depending on your eBook reader, the layout may not be perfect, due to the format of the images used.

    Learn Conversational French Vol. 2 is an audio course for beginners or for anyone who struggles with becoming fluent in French. The focus of this course is to practice speaking conversational French from the very first lesson. Each lesson contains useful everyday phrases related to a specific topic. 
    In these lessons, you’ll be introduced to several “conversation connectors”. Phrases like “as a matter of fact”, “frankly speaking”, “as you already know” and more. By using such phrases, your conversations will have a more natural flow. You will also expand your vocabulary and talk about daily activities, work, plans, and needs. 
    Based on techniques and strategies that make language learners succeed: 
    Learn in short bursts every day. Each lesson takes about 10 minutes to complete. 
    Learn in context. Isolated words or random sentences won’t get you far. By learning phrases related to a specific topic or situation you will see much better results. 
    Focus on high-frequency words. Starting with the most frequently used words will boost your comprehension and communication in your target language. 
    Review the material. Repeating the phrases at certain specified intervals is a powerful technique to help your memory absorb and recall what you have learned. 
    Listen to native speakers. All the phrases are translated and spoken by native speakers.
