Excerpt from The Essentials of German Grammar Such is the theory of this book. Nothing has been inserted that cannot be kept constantly before the pupil; nothing has been intentionally omitted which should be kept there. Some points may seem essential that are not to be found but they are so clearly logical developments of what has been stated, the pupil in following his own judgment would be so sure to get them right, that it seemed a waste of time to discuss them. Then, too, cer tain subjects have intentionally not been treated exhaustively, so as not to confuse the slower pupil, or to deprive the teacher of an opportunity to add interest to the recitation by developing the point and giving the brighter pupils additional food for thought, while the rest are busied with what has already been given them. It will be observed that there are no notes; sentences have intentionally been simplified so that the pupil could do them without aid, that he might not be impressed from the very start with how much he did not know, and with the vast number of irregularities in the language. The best way to interest the pupil is to give him something that he can do, which has been the constant aim of this book. That the sentences are less valuable because not quite so idiomatic, no one will assert, if he believe in the disciplinary value of thorough linguistic training.

Excerpt from Essentials of German Grammar In every branch of knowledge there are essentials which should be thoroughly learned, yes, memorized, by the student; and he is Often puzzled to know just what those essentials are to which he should cling. This book contains a brief outline of the parts of speech, of the word-order, of case-constructions, and of the subjunctive mode; in fact, it gives those things which even student of German should master sometime early in his course. It is not intended that this book should take the place of a complete German grammar, because many details had to be omitted, to keep it within the bounds of essentials. As the parts of speech are given in regular order, an index was not considered necessary, and is not inserted. While the outline is my own, I have received valuable hints from the excellent grammars of Whit ney, Joynes and Thomas. My aim throughout has been to enable the student to grasp the subject more easily and thoroughly. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from First Year in German The natural method (which has been very aptly called the plunge and struggle method) goes to the other extreme. It subordinates systematic study and the practical knowledge of grammar to the acquisition of words and phrases, exercising and cultivating the memory rather than the discriminative faculty of the student.

Excerpt from An Introduction to the Study of Old High German I have sought to avoid this danger, and to make my grammar from the outset clear and comprehensible in itself, and on the other hand I have strenuously tried to avoid the faults of many elementary primers, which attain apparent clearness at the expense of accuracy.

Excerpt from First German Reader Never let a wrong pronunciation pass muster. Do not assign a lesson unless it has been fully explained and prepared in class by the living voice. The questions as laid down in our book are intended for the student, to insure proper review at home. Such review may be oral or written. Of course, these questions do not limit the in dividual teacher in any way and are merely suggestive. But they do outline the work of the pupil definitely so that the matter in hand shall be thoroughly dealt with and mastered. Answers should always be given in complete sentences. We have added fifteen extracts for supplementary reading. They, in turn, are arranged in order of grammatical and syn tactic difficulty. The melodies of the ten songs given in the body of the book, as well as five additional ones, are printed separately. The Grammatical Tables furnish only the absolute essentials of German accidence in systematic arrangement, and are reprinted from our basic book. Yielding to repeated requests, we are giving an abstract of German grammar with brief explanations in German. This abstract contains a set of grammatical terms in German for practical use. We have purposely given the preference to Latin nomenclature since it is more widely employed in German higher schools, and Since it is more readily intelligible to our American pupils.

Excerpt from Beginning German This book does not offer any strikingly novel method. The authors do not even claim that it is easy. They have, however, attempted to reduce the amount of theoretical grammar to those essentials which are necessary to the progress of the student. In the selection of vocabulary a first book should contain the more common words and phrases of everyday life, but in addition to this it should also offer at least an introduction to the more choice language of literature. This double aim has been the guiding principle in the selection of illustrative examples and reading material.
