Routledge (Verlag)
978-0-367-18662-3 (ISBN)
This is achieved by looking closely at the elements of German grammar required for the understanding of written German along with practical advice and observations.
One of the main themes running through the textbook is that it uses a toolkit approach that puts deductive reasoning and decoding skills at its heart to allow learners to engage with a wide variety of texts.
Alexander Burdumy is Director of the International Center at Offenburg University of Applied Sciences.
