Falar outro idioma requer estudo dos vocábulos, do som emitido pelos que falam a língua, das regras gramaticais, dos dialetos inclusive e da cultura dos que falam tal idioma. Mas prepare a garganta, pois sua voz vai mudar de forma inesperada ao falar outra língua, e talvêz sua personalidade também.

Me empresta uma palavra por favor?
lição DDM 328 sobre palavras emprestadas de outros idiomas como por exemplo, Francês.
Na língua Inglêsa, como em Português, Espanhol, acredito que Italiano e a maioria das línguas que surgiram na Europa e que tiveram algum contato com os Franceses (mesmo que a força por motivos de conflitos e guerras).

A aventura está lá fora e ela é exclusivamente em Inglês!
Os motivos para que eu me esforçasse para aprender Inglês são vários, um deles é poder me comunicar com o máximo de pessoas possível, uma vez que Inglês é por definição a linguagem universal e como muitas pessoas poderão entender o que falo de imediato, não terei problemas em atingir meus objetivos. Estudar Inglês, aprender a falar de verdade requer um bom professor, um bom aluno e material de estudo de alta qualidade e isto é o que Coach Shane proporciona em seu curso de Inglês online DDM, PIRf, pronounce it right, Let’s Master English podcast, Word of the day, Coach Shane’s Audio Book Club e Daily English Expression.

Hi! I’m Santa. I organize Coach Shane’s AudioBook Club.
Here’s how to join our Book Club
A little something about me…
I like train stations. When things get all to much for me,
I get out, go to my favorite train station
and relax with some warm food and a nice cup of coffee.
I used to be a PhD candidate at a top 10 UK university…
but now I’m taking a break from all that.
I had to go to a lot of academic conferences and speak with “native English speakers”.
Without Coach Shane’s classes, I wouldn’t have been able to talk with them with confidence.
Coach Shane’s classes still help me at work.
I’ve studied with him now for over 4 years.
Join our book club.
If you’re a book lover and if you love great conversations,
you’ll love our book club.

Just one of the reasons why we love Coach Shane’s AudioBook Club so much.
All our book club meetings are held online.
So it’s convenient.
You can be in your pajamas for all we care.
The only downfall is that you can’t bring your homemade muffins and cookies for everyone to share.
But really, that’s about it.
