Title: Arabic Primer

Author: Sir Arthur Cotton

Narrator: Nicholas James Bridgewater

Length: 4 hrs 25 mins

Language: English

Release date: 1/1/2016

Publisher: LibriVox

Genres: Language Instruction, Language Arts

Publisher's Summary:

"Languages", Sir Arthur Cotton writes, "are usually learnt as if it took a long time to learn the grammar &c., but that to speak with a good pronunciation and expression, and freely, and to catch the words from a speaker by the ear were easily and quickly acquired, but this is exactly contrary to fact." Cotton's "Vocal system" differs from the traditional grammatical method of learning languages in that it emphasises the development of correct pronunciation and the gradual acquisition of correct expressions and vocabulary. This is achieved through listening and repeating words and phrases uttered by a teacher. In the case of this audiobook, the teacher is the reader himself. The Arabic Primer contains only the simplest and most basic Arabic words. It allows the student to gain a foundational knowledge of the sounds and expressions of the Arabic language. Having mastered this work, the student can continue to develop his or her knowledge of Arabic through more advanced textbooks. (Summary by Nicholas Bridgewater)

Length: 6 hrs 54 mins

Language: English

Release date: 1/1/2016

Publisher: LibriVox

Genres: Language Instruction, Language Arts

Publisher's Summary:

Dr. Branner was a recognized authority on the geology of South American republics, especially Brazil, having organized and headed the Stanford Expedition to Brazil in 1911, among others. In 1910 he published this "little book", as the author himself calls it, for the use of English-speaking students who needed a fast and practical way of learning Portuguese. Contrary to the belief of many back then, John C. Branner claims that Brazilian Portuguese isn't "badly spoken Portuguese", and, even though using examples from both Portuguese and Brazilian writers, seems to give more proeminence to Brazilian Portuguese.
