This book is the Greek translation of Der, Die, Das: The Secrets of German Grammar (ISBN 978-3-9524810-0-4), which was originallypublished in English.The challenge that foreign students of Germanface if they want to speak German well, is to accurately map German nouns to one of three grammatical genders: masculine, feminine or neuter. Native German speakers acquire their knowledge of the grammatical gender of German nouns from early on. They are not given formal instruction at school about matching nouns to their correct gender, and the topic is not covered in standard German grammar books. For the same reason, native speakers who give German language lessons to foreigners do not teach their students how to match nouns to their gender: One cannot teach what one has not been taught. This book fills that gap in that it explainsthe principles that map German nouns to a specific gender. This allows foreign students of German to unlock the gender of entire categories of nouns, thereby enabling students to speak German more confidently.

Learning a language involves so much more than just rote memorization of rules.Basics of Language for Language Learners, 2nd edition, by Peter W. Culicover and Elizabeth V. Hume, systematically explores all the aspects of language central to second language learning: the sounds of language, the different grammatical structures, the social functions of communication, and the psychology of language learning and use.Unlike books specific to one single language,Basics of Languagewill help students ofalllanguages. Readers will gain insight into the structure and use of their own language and will therefore see more clearly how the language they are learning differs from their first language. Language instructors will find the approach provocative, and the book will stimulate many new and effective ideas for teaching. Both a textbook and a reference work,Basics of Languagewill enhance the learning experience for anyone taking a foreign language course as well as the do-it-yourself learner.A new section, Tools and Strategies for Language Learning, has been added to this second edition. It comprises three chapters that focus on brain training, memory and using a dictionary. In addition, the section Thinking Like a Native Speaker has been substantially updated to include more discussion of errors made by language learners.
