| Brief Description: | This Book, the first modern, full course of Slovak for English Speakers, is intended for the first year of language study at the college level. It is also suitable for self study when used in combination with accompanying tapes. Computer drillsare being developed for use with the textbook.
Each lesson, designed to be covered in approximately two weeks of study, consists of dialogues, grammatical commentary, vocabulary, exercises, sentences for translation and a reading. Lessons are focussed on specific practical use areas; greetings, family and home life, work, study, shopping, meals, and so on. Although conversation and readings are set in contemporary Slovakia, situations are chosen for their generality, their ability to apply to life in both Slovakia and the United states. |
