ABOUT THIS COURSE

Learn In Your Car – Spanish, Level Two is a continuation ofLearn In Your Car Spanish, Level One. Level Two beginswhere Level One ends. Level One is designed and organizedprimarily with the traveler in mind. Level Two continues withmore ideas, concepts, and vocabulary that are useful to thetraveler, but introduces more complex vocabulary and gram-mar. The following guidelines are used: 1. The basic premise is that communicating in a languagerequires learning words, phrases and sentences: but you can'tlearn to communicate effectively in a language unless youknow the individual meaning of each word. 2. The emphasis is on communication. Words, phrases or sen-tences can be used to communicate. It is not always necessary to use a complete sentence to convey a thought.3. It teaches the way a child learns. Children start by learningone-word sentences, then two-word sentences, etc.

LEVEL TWO

by Henry N. Raymond

4. It teaches the most important things first. This course doesnot use your valuable memory to store useless words. Theimportant words you need to survive and get around are taughtfirst. Grammar is introduced in the later lessons, but it is taughtwith examples rather than rules.5. No more than one new word is introduced at a time. Thismeans you won't hear a sentence or a phrase and wonder whichsound corresponds to which word. (Various forms of previous-ly introduced verbs are used along with new words.) 6. No textbook is required. The fact that no more than one newword is introduced at a time enables you to use the CDs effectively without referring to a textbook. The CDs aredesigned to be used without a textbook so that you can usethem while driving a car or while doing other things thatrequire similar amounts of concentration.7. Literal (word-for-word) translations are used as much aspossible. This enables you to understand how a sentence orphrase is constructed and what the individual words mean.

HOW TO USE“LEARN IN YOUR CAR – SPANISH”

The first track on the first disk is an introduction. Lessons starton the following track.

Start by playing through the first lesson. For each expressionyou will hear the English version followed by a pause, then theSpanish translation followed by a pause, then the Spanishtranslation a second time followed by a third pause. At first,you will only be able to imitate the Spanish words in the twopauses after the Spanish translations (the second and thirdpauses). As you learn and progress, you will be able to recalland recite the Spanish version during the first pause before youhear the first Spanish translation. Be sure to speak the Spanishexpressions out loud. The rate at which you learn will be significantly slower if you do not speak the expressions aloud.

Play the first lesson several times until you learn most of it.Then start playing the first lesson followed by the second lesson until you learn most of the second lesson. As youprogress keep adding lessons. Always go back to the beginningof the first lesson to reinforce the material you have alreadylearned. (As you progress through the material, you may want

to restart at some place other than the start of the first lesson.This is fine as long as you know all the material ahead of yourstarting point. Later lessons are designed with the assumptionthat you already know the material in earlier lessons.)
