Do you know what the hardest thing for a Portuguese learner is? Finding proper reading material that they can handle…which is precisely the reason we’ve written this book! Teachers love giving out tough, expert-level literature to their students, books that present many new problems to the reader and force them to search for words in a dictionary every five minutes - it’s not entertaining, useful or motivating for the student at all, and many soon give up on learning at all!

Learning a new language is such an amazing tool that allows people from different parts of the world to connect more easily. In the case of the Portuguese language, several countries have it as the official language, making it the sixth most spoken language on Earth, with 170 million speakers worldwide. This means that learning it grants you the possibility of making friends or finding job opportunities in the most obscure places you can imagine.

When face-to-face with a real Brazilian Portuguese speaker, do you freeze? Do you fear not knowing how to ask for directions in Portuguese or even worse, communicate if there’s an emergency? If your answer to any of these questions was "Yes", then keep listening! If there’s anything more challenging than learning the grammar rules of a new language, it’s knowing what to say while having the courage to speak with confidence. We know how you feel. "How do I get out of this situation?", you may ask yourself, but have yet to find a straight-forward answer. Until now.

Jessica really wanted to learn Spanish but thought she just couldn’t find the time to do so. Nothing seemed like it was going to work and if it did, it was going to take too much time for Jessica to commit to. With no positive results coming from any of these language learning attempts, Jessica began to believe that learning a new language was going to be an impossible task. Luckily for people like Jessica with busy work schedules, learning the basics to the Spanish language has never been easier.

After years of teaching intermediate students who never seemed to improve, I decided to find out what the problem was. Essentially, intermediate students get stuck because learning at this stage is a different type of learning than at the beginner stage. You have mastered the grammar and the basic vocabulary, but most textbooks just carry on like nothing has changed. However, what you need at the intermediate stage is not just more dry grammar and lists of vocabulary.

Japan, after suffering from a massive irreparable disaster, cuts itself off from the world. Children are so weak they can barely stand or walk: the only people with any get-go are the elderly. Mumei lives with his grandfather Yoshiro, who worries about him constantly. They carry on a day-to-day routine in what could be viewed as a post-Fukushima time, with all the children born ancient - frail and gray-haired, yet incredibly compassionate and wise. Mumei may be enfeebled and feverish, but he is a beacon of hope, full of wit and free of self-pity and pessimism.

Misconceptions, misunderstandings, and flawed facts finally get the heave-ho in this humorous, downright humiliating book of reeducation based on the phenomenal British best seller. Challenging what most of us assume to be verifiable truths in areas like history, literature, science, nature, and more, The Book of General Ignorance is a witty “gotcha” compendium of how little we actually know about anything. It’ll have you scratching your head wondering why we even bother to go to school.

In searing, beautiful prose, Sam Shepard's extraordinary narrative tells in a brilliant braid of voices the story of an unnamed narrator who traces, before our rapt ears, his memories of work, adventure, and travel as he undergoes medical tests and treatments for a condition that is rendering him more and more dependent on the loved ones who are caring for him. The narrator's memories and preoccupations often echo those of our current moment - for here are stories of immigration and community, inclusion and exclusion, suspicion and trust.

Mumei lives with his grandfather Yoshiro, who worries about him constantly. They carry on a day-to-day routine in what could be viewed as a post-Fukushima time, with all the children born ancient - frail and gray-haired, yet incredibly compassionate and wise. Mumei may be enfeebled and feverish, but he is a beacon of hope, full of wit and free of self-pity and pessimism.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 322
Misconceptions, misunderstandings, and flawed facts finally get the heave-ho in this humorous, downright humiliating book of reeducation based on the phenomenal British best seller. Challenging what most of us assume to be verifiable truths in areas like history, literature, science, nature, and more, The Book of General Ignorance is a witty “gotcha” compendium of how little we actually know about anything. It’ll have you scratching your head wondering why we even bother to go to school.

In searing, beautiful prose, Sam Shepard's extraordinary narrative tells in a brilliant braid of voices the story of an unnamed narrator who traces, before our rapt ears, his memories of work, adventure, and travel as he undergoes medical tests and treatments for a condition that is rendering him more and more dependent on the loved ones who are caring for him. The narrator's memories and preoccupations often echo those of our current moment - for here are stories of immigration and community, inclusion and exclusion, suspicion and trust.

The only thing more beautiful than Beyoncé is God, and God is a black woman sipping rosé and drawing a lavender bath, texting her mom, belly laughing in the therapist's office, feeling unloved, being on display, daring to survive. Morgan Parker stands at the intersections of vulnerability and performance, of desire and disgust, of tragedy and excellence. Unrelentingly feminist, tender, and ruthless, these poems are an altar to the complexities of black American womanhood in an age of non-indictments and déjà vu.

When face-to-face with a real Brazilian Portuguese speaker, do you freeze? Do you fear not knowing how to ask for directions in Portuguese or even worse, communicate if there’s an emergency? If your answer to any of these questions was "Yes", then keep listening! If there’s anything more challenging than learning the grammar rules of a new language, it’s knowing what to say while having the courage to speak with confidence. We know how you feel. "How do I get out of this situation?", you may ask yourself, but have yet to find a straight-forward answer. Until now.

The passionate and tragic story of Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff is one of the high points of 19th-century Romantic literature. In the relationship of Cathy and Heathcliff, and in the wild, bleak Yorkshire Moors of its setting, Wuthering Heights creates a world of its own, conceived with a disregard for convention and an instinct for poetry and the darkest depths of the human soul in torment.

Set on Egdon Heath, a fictional barren moor in Wessex, Eustacia Vye longs for the excitement of city life but is cut off from the world in her grandfather's lonely cottage. Clym Yeobright who has returned to the area to become a schoolmaster seems to offer everything she dreams of: passion, excitement and the opportunity to escape. However, Clym's ambitions are quite different, and marriage only increases Eustacia's destructive restlessness, drawing others into a tangled web of deceit and unhappiness.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 2,017
Countess Ellen Olenska, separated from her European husband, returns to old New York society. She bears with her an independence and an awareness of life which stirs the educated sensitivity of the charming Newland Archer, engaged to be married to her cousin, May Welland. Though he accepts the society's standards and rules he is acutely aware of their limitations. He knows May will assure him a conventional future but Ellen, scandalously separated from her husband, forces Archer to question his values and beliefs.

Pretty good
I enjoyed the 3 part repetition with increasing to a full sentence but found the sentences to sometimes contain too many words to properly repeat back.

Very good for spanish speakers !
Given similarities between portuguese and spanish, this audiobook gives you a fresh start on the most common words and phrases... Not sure if it is a good fit for english speaker only.

Awkward sequences
The phrases are built slowly but in a way that’s not the best for learning

Good resource
This is a great resource for beginners, male sure you slow down the playback speed to 0.80 yo have enough time to repeat after the narrator.
