Using French Vocabulary pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載2025

This textbook provides a comprehensive and structured vocabulary for all levels of undergraduate French courses, including relevant higher and further education courses. It offers a broad coverage of concrete and abstract vocabulary relating to the physical, cultural, social, commercial and political environment, as well as exposure to commonly encountered technical terminology. Within each section, words and phrases have been grouped into manageable, assimilable units and broadly ‘graded’ according to likely usefulness and difficulty. The accompanying exercises for private study and classroom use are designed to reinforce the work done on lists, to develop good dictionary use, to encourage independent and collaborative learning, to promote precision and awareness of nuance and register, and to offer the opportunity for the development of cognate transferable skills, such as communicative competence, teamwork and problem-solving. The division of the book into twenty thematic sections allows it to be easily integrated into a modular course structure.

• Can be used throughout an undergraduate degree course, including modular programmes • Provides a practical topic-based vocabulary, graded according to usefulness and difficulty, to promote a sound basis for communication in a wide range of circumstances • Exercises for private study and classroom use consolidate work done on word lists
