Description

It's a great feeling to know you can be who you are without fear or embarrassment. This German language course is designed to be FUN AND EASY to follow. In this eBook we have covered all of the most likely situations you may face and have prepared you with the KEY WORDS AND PHRASES most commonly used. In this modern age you will most likely have a cell phone and wear a watch - consequently we have avoided tedious chapters on telling the time, counting and things you can point to. Instead, we have replaced them with more of what you will actually need! This programme is ideal if you are taking a short break or making a business trip. Everything from hiring a car, checking in to your hotel, sightseeing, shopping, eating out, from meeting people to dealing with emergencies is covered in topical chapters that you can access instantly. Make the most of your travels with all of our 'Jump Into' language courses available in Spanish, German, Italian, Dutch and French.

Introduction

Hello and welcome. This concise eBook is intended to help you make the most of your travels, regardless of whether your journey is for business or pleasure. We will provide you with relevant words and phrases that you may require for the most common situations you will face. As this is a short programme, we have focused solely on what you may need. For this reason we have assumed that you wear a watch and that you carry a cellphone. In addition we have tried not to include things that you can easily point to. So now, all you have to do is just refer to the phrases and words that best suit the circumstances. By the end of the programme we hope that you have the confidence to speak and understand the basics.

So let’s get started!
