    Babel No More: The Search for the World's Most Extraordinary Language Learners , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 543min
    A "fascinating" (The Economist) dive into the world of linguistics that is "part travelogue, part science lesson, part intellectual investigation...an entertaining, informative survey of some of the most fascinating polyglots of our time" (The New York Times Book Review). We all learn at least one language as children. But what does it take to learn six languages...or seventy? In Babel No More, Michael Erard, "a monolingual with benefits," sets out on a quest to meet language superlearners and make sense of their mental powers. On the way he uncovers the secrets of historical figures like Italian cardinal Giuseppe Mezzofanti, who was said to speak seventy-two languages; Emil Krebs, a pugnacious German diplomat, who spoke sixty-eight languages; and Lomb Kat, a Hungarian who taught herself Russian by reading Russian romance novels. On his way to tracking down the man who could be called the most linguistically talented person in the world, Erard meets modern language-superlearners. Among them is Alexander, who shows Erard the tricks of the trade and gives him a dark glimpse into the life of obsessive language acquisition. "Others do yoga," writes Erard. "Alexander does grammatical exercises." With his ambitious examination of what language is, where it lives in the brain, and the cultural implications of polyglots’ pursuits, Erard explores the upper limits of our ability to learn and to use languages, illuminating the intellectual potential in everyone. How do some people escape the curse of Babel - and what might the gods have demanded of them in return? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Robert Blumenfeld.

    Spanish Common Phrases: The Ultimate Spanish Language Lessons to Learn a Language for Beginners with Phrases to Improve Your Conversation Skills and Learn Common Word Used in Context , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 306min
    Are you looking for a complete guide on common Spanish phrases? Then keep reading...I’m assuming by your choice of the nature of this book that it may be your first foray into language learning. As such, I felt that it was appropriate for me to take some time to explain some things about language learning in general, as well as the Spanish language in particular. Don’t worry, this won’t take a long time. All it takes is a collection of observations that I’ve made about language learning and Spanish itself. The first thing that I always hear from people trying to learn a new language is that it’s overwhelmingly difficult or that they’re simply not cut out for it for this reason or that. That’s essentially a total lie. Our brains are hardwired for language.Maybe, traditional approaches to language learning have really burned you out, and you’re looking for something a tad more interactive. Well, let me tell you that you’re without a doubt making the right first steps. People who can speak multiple languages are known as polyglots. Some are simply savants, some are hobbyists, and some are born or groomed into situations where they need to speak multiple different languages. Most polyglots will agree that the single best way to learn a language is through the concept of immersion. Why? Let me explain.Back in the olden days, we had to attach words to concepts. A tree - the tree - isn’t actually finitely a tree. It’s simply a part of being that we have called a tree. However, a Spanish speaker would call it an arból, and a French speaker would call it an arbre. So, the tree isn’t really a “tree” in any sense, it’s just there, and you happen to call it a tree.The reason I’m telling you this is because English and Spanish are, unfortunately, not from the same language family. English is a Germanic language, descending from the West Germanic languages. However, the fact that the United Kingdom is extremely close to both Spa ungekürzt. Language: English.
