"This book offers a somewhat old-fashioned approach to learning vocabulary but it does get the job done. It is organised by theme and has plenty of drills."

Customer Reviews

Good for anyone with a foundation in German grammar
I used the equivelent of this book in an upper-division Spanish class that I took; I found it truly broadens the vocabulary tremendously. I feel, however, that both of these workbooks, although useful, require a foundation in the syntax of the language for full appreciation of what the authors/editors are trying to do. However, the exercises may be completed without the background.

Especially useful for preparation for travelling and specialized vocabulary (ie. computer, car, etc. etc.)

Review by an 83 year old student
The Outline is fantastic for individuals studying German for pleasure and travel. It is thorough and very well written. I have learned and enjoyed the learning experience at the same time. Highly reccomend for all studying German as a second language.

German Language Help
This book is a great tool for improving one's vocabulary in German. It focusses on specific areas, provides the words for that area, and has some exercises to review the words. A good book to enhance one's learning German, at the intermediate level.
