The Universal Translator is a unique pocket-size translator that will enable it's readers to communicate in the most widely spoken languages in the world (English, Mandarin Chinese, Spanish, Arabic, Hindi, Portuguese, Bengali, Russian, Japanese, German, French and Malay). The vast majority of people in the world speak at least one of these languages. Imagine how wonderful it would be to be able to communicate with people anywhere in the world. The importance of being able to communicate with people gave rise to the idea to create the Universal Translator. Due to a lack of time, most people will not learn to speak more than one or two languages fluently. This can be a problem when there is a need and desire to interact with people from different parts of the world. There is a necessity to use a shortcut to aid in vital communication. The Universal Translator was created to provide the fastest route to communication. What separates it from typical phrase books is that technical details are ignored. This pocket translator simply provides the most common sentences and phrases used in social and business interactions, written as they would be if they were English words. This way one can focus on actual communication rather than differences in alphabets, grammar and pronunciation. This book allows people to perform basic social and business communication wherever they may find themselves in the world. This guide will be useful for travelers, business people and all citizens of the world.
All PA-German speakers are bilingual with the exception of small children. Knowing PA-German is not necessary for communication. Therefore this phrase book does not focus on travel phrases which might come in handy if you were traveling in a foreign country. The phrases and questions given in this book are common ones which can be used to ask a simple question, start a conversation or give an appropriate reply in PA-German. Languages can be an interesting and fun topic of conversation. Perhaps you can find a native speaker who is willing to help you with pronunciation. If you are a serious student of PA-German, this book will give you a good start. PA-German varies slightly in different regions. This book reflects the usage of PA-German in Holms County, OH.

The TRILINGUAL RUSSIAN-ENGLISH-SPANISH Book is based on the brilliant story of one of the best classical masters of the world short story Anton Pavlovich Chekhov. Chekhov's stories are timeless and excite us today as they excited readers more than 100 years ago. This book is a wonderful tool to read the Russian classic comparing the three languages and testing our abilities and memory a little bit beyond the regular range of traditional language study. Russian, English, and Spanish belong to three different linguistic groups: Slavic, Germanic, and Romance. The fascinating comparative trilingual grammar summary is enclosed by the author to the trilingual text. The text is formatted in paragraphs - each page has the three paragraphs of the same text in the three languages. This formatting should be convenient in the electronic version too, as it will run on a Kindle screen page after page. Are you a student, a business person, a homemaker or a teacher of languages - you will benefit from this original cross-cultural trilingual presentation of an outstanding literary masterpiece. Zoia Sproesser has a Master's Degree in Education. She has lived in the USA for 16 years. She has devoted to Spanish nine years of studies, continuing mastering the beautiful language of Cervantes.

"God Made This/Dieu a fait ceci" is an English/French bilingual book for children. This is Volume 5 in the series and this is Level 1 for infants to toddlers. The books in this juvenile non-fiction series are intended to teach reading in two languages; they are not "story" books. This book includes single words and pairs of words for the ear training of infants as well as toddlers. The pictures help infants associate sounds with symbols--images at first and ultimately words at the toddler level and beyond. Toddlers will be able to repeat words, word pairs, phrases, and brief sentences aided by the picture cues. They will gradually be able to read the words using the printed word as their cue. This volume presents images of the natural world around us and are of high interest to young children. The natural environment, earth, sky, water features, animals, flowers, fruits, vegetables, and a variety of types of people are included. The book teaches that "God made this." Color photos and illustrations were carefully selected to captivate your child's interest. Words and sentences were judiciously chosen and crafted to facilitate learning for both age groups. Words are re-entered throughout the book to help your child feel a sense of accomplishment. It is suggested that only one language be read at a time. Start with the child's first or "maternal" language for several reading sessions, then introduce the second language. At no time should the two languages be read during the same session. This volume should be of interest to English speakers who want to teach their child(ren) French as well as French speakers who wish to teach their child(ren) English. In addition, speakers of other languages will find the book useful for teaching their child(ren) both French and English.

From the author of the bilingual collection of poems, Soundless Guitars, Adulterous Dreams, here's a collection of unpretentious, pleasing thoughts, authored by ordinary speakers of our collective wisdom. But now enhanced and presented in English, Spanish, and French. Some are identical to our innermost trivial musings, and some are more challenging, perhaps controversial, and we don't want to miss the opportunity to enjoy or refute them. Yes, it does boil down to opening one's mind in order to identify with what's beyond the words. But then, if opening our mind is a condition to read and enjoy quotations, be they authored by the famous or by the nameless, "then why must we close our mind again if for no reason?" Indeed, the answers to this and to similar questions lie within you. "It takes more than looking to see; more than seeing to understand; more than understanding... to uphold the truth." Regardless of how this idea may resonate in your first language, pondering on it in any second or third YES-SI-OUI language adds to the enjoyment that we all expect from a good book. So take out a minute and do your mind a favor Read them in the language of your choice; brush up on what you have learned, or meet your favorite new language halfway. Bonne Chance
