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.

May We Be Forgiven, a darkly comic novel of 21st-century domestic life, stars Harold Silver, a historian who's always been jealous of his successful brother, George. But when the hot-tempered George is institutionalized for committing a violent act, Harold finds himself comforting his brother's wife and children. What follows is a scathing examination of a family so fractured it may never be whole again.

Story
This powerful and haunting memoir details the years Paula McLain and her two sisters spent as foster children after being abandoned by both parents in California in the early 1970s. As wards of the State, the sisters spent the next 14 years moving from foster home to foster home. The dislocations, confusions, and odd pleasures of an unrooted life form the basis of one of the most compelling memoirs in recent years - a book in the tradition of Jo Ann Beard's The Boys of My Youth and Mary Karr's The Liars' Club.

Story
Krys Malcolm Belc has thought a lot about the interplay between parenthood and gender. As a nonbinary, transmasculine parent, giving birth to his son Samson clarified his gender identity. And yet, when his partner Anna adopted Samson, the legal documents listed Belc as "the natural mother of the child." The Natural Mother of the Child journeys both toward and through common perceptions of what it means to have a body and how that body can influence the perception of a family.

Story
Number-one New York Times best-selling author Laurie Notaro isn't exactly a domestic goddess - unless that means she fully embraces her genetic hoarding predisposition, sneaks peeks at her husband's daily journal, or has made a list of the people she wants on her Apocalypse Survival team (her husband's not on it). Notaro chronicles her chronic misfortune in the domestic arts, including cooking, cleaning, and putting on Spanx while sweaty (which should technically qualify as an Olympic sport).

Angela can feel the clock ticking. She is single in New York City, stuck in a job she doesn't want and a life that seems to have somehow just happened. She inherited a flair for Italian cooking from her grandmother, but she never seems to have the time for it - these days, her oven holds only sweaters. Tacked to her office bulletin board is a photo from a magazine of a tidy cottage on the coast of Maine - a charming reminder of a life that could be hers if she could only muster the courage to go after it.

Perfect for acquisition of functional Afrikaans!
The foundational language concepts within this book are well-suited to beginners like myself. I've been wanting to learn some of this dialect for a long time as I have a few close friends who speak it at home. It was great to be able to dive in and cover all basics, without being thrown into overly complex dialogue. It is a fantastic listen, paced appropriately and well-developed to engage new learners. I didn't feel overwhelmed by the content and came out with basic functional knowledge of Afrikaans.

YOUR TICKET TO GLOBAL CITIZENSHIP!
Learning a new language can be overwhelming, especially as you try to accomplish all the daily necessities of earning a living, taking care of yourself and/or your family, etc.
“Learn Afrikaans” makes this fascinating language readily accessible by presenting the basics with proven teaching techniques, ensuring correct pronunciation and long-term retention.
The concise narration by Les Smith, a native speaker of Afrikaans, dives right into numbers, and it’s easy to listen to and repeat each word. Besides numbers, you’ll encounter the words used in various real-world encounters, as well as greetings, describing yourself and your family, weather, food, sports, and much more.
While my initial thought reading the accompanying 15-page PDF was, “Man, phonetics on these words would really help,” if you follow along with the audiobook, pronunciation is not a problem. You begin to get a functional grasp of what Afrikaans looks like in printed words, and how those words translate into sound. So it’s all good.
I came away with a functional knowledge of Afrikaans and look forward to testing my new skills.
This is your ticket to global citizenship, and I highly recommended it.

A Useful Tool for Proficiency
This book is a valuable tool for learning the African language for beginners. The method will create memory paths which is the starting point for learning the language essentials. You also utilize muscle memory physically that involves your mouth and tongue. The various areas of learning include counting basic numbers from one to twenty, naming many common food items such as fruits and vegetables, and emotions, colors, and words associated with school and days of the week. You will have a foundation to then more easily learn grammar and structure of sentences. There is a download PDF to assist as well. As you become fluid with vocabulary through repetition and memorization you will be on track to understand and be understood in fuller sentences. Your proficiencies will allow you to further learn grammar, verbs and more clearly communicating with native speakers. Use this recurringly to benefit as it’s designed.

Learn Afrikaans quickly!
The hard part of learning a language is actually the pronunciation (for me). But with this book, it actually teaches you the correct pronunciation which makes it easier especially if you're a beginner. I've often heard about Afrikaans and was interested in the language as there is only a small part of the population who uses this language. The book will eventually make you conversational with Afrikaans as the examples are being verbalized by the native speakers.
So if you're looking to learn Afrikaans or a new, distinct language, then this book is certainly for you. Get started and speak Afrikaans like a local!

Great Beginner Tool for Learning the Language
I had a terrible time learning Afrikaans until I discovered the Global Citizen Beginner Vocabulary Mastery, which made a huge difference! Lessons on pronunciation and vocabulary are clear and engaging, making learning common words appear simple. The structured repetition helped to solidify my comprehension, and the supplementary PDF was helpful for visual reinforcement. Now, I am enthusiastic and prepared for my vacation to South Africa. This audiobook is essential for anyone just starting out!

This audiobook is a great grammar workbook/textbook to use as a supplement to other methods of learning such as reading and listening to spoken language. I found that it will be effective for a total beginner. Some of the exercises such as pronunciation, learning sound of some basic vocabulary were really good.

Fun Language Learning
I just finished "Learn Afrikaans" and found it a great resource for starting the language. The vocabulary lessons, starting with numbers, were well-structured. My favorite part was learning the words for body parts; I even swapped the terms in the song "Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes!" This audiobook makes learning Afrikaans both enjoyable and effective.
